No, since SCl2 is bent, SCl4 is distorted tetrahedral and CH4 is tetrahedral.
SC12 (sulfur dichloride) and SC14 (sulfur tetrafluoride) will not have the same shape as CH4 (methane). CH4 has a tetrahedral shape due to its four equivalent bonds and no lone pairs on the central carbon atom. In contrast, SC12 has a bent shape because of the presence of lone pairs on sulfur, while SC14 will have a trigonal bipyramidal shape due to its five bonding pairs and no lone pairs.
CH4 has no lone pairs.It has 4 repulsive units.So shape is tetrahedral
tetrahedral
CH4 has four even repulsive units.So its shape is tetrahedral.NH3 has 3 units including a lone pair.So its shape is pyramidal
The molecule shape of CH4 (methane) is tetrahedral, with the carbon atom at the center and the four hydrogen atoms at the vertices. This shape maximizes the distance between the hydrogen atoms, minimizing repulsion and leading to a stable molecule.

CH4 should have a tetrahedral shape while SnCl4 should have a trigonal bipyramidal shape.

Methane is a gas and so takes the shape of the container that it is in.

The shape of the methane molecule is called a tetrahedron.
Methane is a compound of hydrogen and carbon, and has a chemical formula CH4 (where the '4' is small, subscript - i.e. below the line)
