Income tax an amount of tax that is due on your TAXABLE INCOME amount for the tax year.
There are two types of tax that is related to income equality: Regressive tax: The tax as a percentage of your income decrease as your income rises. Example includes VAT (Value Added Tax) where the burden of the tax falls more heavily onb the poor than to the rich. Therefore it increases the income inequality. Progressive tax: The tax as a percentage of your income increases as your income rises. Example includes income tax where as your income rises, the tax percentage increases. Therefore, it creates more income equality.
As income increases the percentage of that paid as tax progressively increases. If it was a "flat tax" instead, the percentage paid would be constant regardless of income.
The progressive tax rate is one where the tax rate increases as the taxable rate, or income, is increasing.
