Explanation / Answer

There are four atoms bonded to the central atom.

If any three of the outer atoms are taken, they will define trigonal planar shape.

All the bond angle have approximately same numerical value which is 109 degree.

All four position about the central atom are equivalent.

Geometry of the molecule is tetrahedral.
