An Atom with 5 regions of electron density has a basic geometry of trigonal bipyramidal(with 5 bond pairs).
In case of 1 lone pair and 4 bond pairs in 4 regions of electron density has the geometry see-saw.
For 2 lone pairs and 3 bond pairs has a T-shaped geometry.
For 3 lone pairs and 2 bond pairs has a linear geometry.
So it has 4 molecular geometries.
Hope this helps! Cheers!
