Explanation:

When we have direct sunlight, the temperature is higher compared to indirect sunlight.

Direct sunlight is usually overhead whereas indirect sunlight is at an angle to the surface.

Direct sunlight impacts the surface with more energy concentrated on a smaller surface area.
This warms the surface more.
Indirect sunlight is diffuse and spreads over a wider area.
This leads to a reduction in temperature.
