Crystal field splitting for trigonal bipyramidal​

Answer»

For a trigonal planar complex (e.g. [AgCl3]2−)

The x2−y2x2−y2 and xyxy orbitals are on the same ENERGY level. HOWEVER, assuming that one of the ClClligands LIES on the YY axis (or the xx axis), wouldn't the x2−y2x2−y2 orbital be higher in energy? Thanks in advance.
