Answer 1

the angle at which the sun strikes Earth. The angle at which the sun's rays hit the Earth's surface determines the amount of heat and light that is received, which affects the temperature. Areas that receive direct sunlight at a higher angle will be warmer than areas that receive indirect sunlight at a lower angle.
