The shape of water molecule according to VSEPR theory, is

  • octahedral

  • distorted tetrahedral

  • trigonal planar

  • trigonal bipyramidal


B.

distorted tetrahedral

Water molecule has sp3-hybridisation (tetrahedral geometry). According to the VSEPR theory its actual geometry is V-shape (distorted tetrahedral) due to the presence of two lone pairs of electrons on the central oxygen atom.
