Explanation:

Majorly, there are three types of Tax systems; these are:  Progressive, regressive and proportional.

A tax in which the tax rate increases as the taxable amount increases is known as a progressive tax.

The term "progressive" refers to the way the tax rate progresses from low to high, such that a taxpayer's average tax rate is less than the person's marginal tax rate.

Also,a progressive tax is  applicable to individual taxes or to a tax system as a whole; a year, multi-year, or lifetime. It is imposed with the aim of reducing the tax incidence of people with a lower ability to pay, as such taxes shift the incidence increasingly to those with a higher ability-to-pay.

Thus, an income tax is progressive if the percentage of income paid as taxes increases as income increases.
