The four covalent bonds in methane (CH4) are equivalent due to the tetrahedral geometry of the molecule. The carbon atom in methane forms four single bonds with four hydrogen atoms, arranged in a three-dimensional tetrahedral shape. This arrangement leads to equal bond lengths, bond angles, and electron distribution, making all four C-H bonds identical and equivalent.
