The molecule methane has four Carbon-Hydrogen single covalent bonds. These covalent bonds are called nonpolarcovalent bonds because. The consequence of this equal sharing of electrons is that there is no charge separation (dipole moment). Compare that to polar covalent bonds.

Answer:

It has been found that a methane molecule has a three dimensional tetrahedral structure. The four carbon hydrogen tetrahedral structure. The four carbon hydrogen bonds are directed towards the four corners of tetrahedron. In such a configuration, none of the participating atoms is more electrically charged as compared to other atoms. Hence methane molecule is a non polar covalent compound.

Hope it helped.
