- 90° angles are only present in molecules with five electron domains, and should be avoided in all other scenarios.
|

- The angle between the peripheral atoms should be labelled once for each distinct angle.

- for $\text{AX}_n\text{E}_m$ structures, where $n+m=4$, the angle between peripheral atoms is equal to $109.5° - 2.5m$.

- for $\text{AX}_n\text{E}_m$ structures, where $n+m=3$, the angle between peripheral atom is equal to $120°-3m$.

The below 3D diagrams are for $\text{CH}_4$, $\text{NH}_3$, and $\text{H}_2\text{O}$, respectively. Note that the angle on $\text{NH}_3$ is supposed to be $107°$.

In a trigonal bipyramid, the **equatorial** positions of domains refer to the position of the domains on the x- and z-dimensions (a trigonal plane). The domains along the y-dimension are have **axial** positions. The angle between the two is known as the **equatorial-axial** angle. Lone pairs are always placed in equatorial positions.
