Due to the lone pairs on the N and P atoms, both molecules have a trigonal pyramidal shape.

Trigonal planar
Which molecule has 120 degrees bond angle?
A trigonal planar molecule such as sulfur trioxide (SO3) or boron trihydride (BH3) has a trigonal planar shape. Trigonal pyramidal molecules such as ammonia (NH3) have bond angle closer to 107 degrees.
