DevinOh, dude, inclined planes in the house? Like, you've got ramps for your pets to climb onto the couch, those sliding drawers in your kitchen cabinets, and even your staircase is a fancy inclined plane. Basically, anything that helps you move stuff up or down at an angle is a sneaky inclined plane in disguise.
A doorstop is a common example. Because the wedge is a kind of inclined plane, any wedge will work as well. Here's a clever wedge. A general zipper has three wedges. One to unzip the object (jacket, etc.), and two to help zip something up.
Yes...for example, a ladder or the windshield to your vehicle. Also, your stairs are an example! If you have kids and have a little playground in your backyard or just swings and a slide, a slide is an example of an inclined plane! Hope that helps!

Why is an inclined plane important?
Inclined planes are everywhere and are very useful. As a child, did you ever play on a slide or a see-saw? Both are inclined planes. Have you ever lived in a house? The roof of most houses are inclined planes. Entrance and exit ramps for highways and the highway itself are more examples of inclined planes. (If you ever have a chance, look at a roadway. Most roadways are not flat but are pitched so that water does not pool when it rains.)
