Insolation angle refers to how directly sunlight hits a surface. The poles receive sunlight at a low, slanted angle, spreading the solar energy over a larger area, leading to cooler temperatures. The equator receives sunlight at a nearly 90-degree (high) angle, concentrating solar energy, resulting in warmer temperatures.
