Shape of p orbital : for p sub shell   l=1 m=-1, 0,+1   i. e P subshell has three possible orbital desigrated as named as These three orbital are of equal energy but differ in orbital or orientation. P orbital is domb-bell shaped and probability of finding the electron in both the lobes are same .  Shape of d orbital: for d sub shell l=2 m =-2, -1, 0,+1, +2 since there are five values of m. so there are five possible orientation named as dxy, dyz, dzx, dx^2y^2. The three orbital dxy ,dyz, dzx, are similar in shape each consisting of four lobes of high electron density lying b/w the axis.  dx^2y^2 orbital also have four lobes High electron density lying along the y axis & x-axis  dz^2 orbital is symmetrical about z-axis and  is dombbell shaped. in this orbital the part of orbital lying in the direction of magnetic field is enclosed and part of orbital lying perpendicular to it is contracted
