Show how you would use Raman and infrared spectroscopy to distinguish between regular octahedral and regular trigonal

Question:

Show how you would use Raman and infrared spectroscopy to distinguish between regular octahedral and regular trigonal prismatic geometries of a six-coordinate species, ML6. Discuss the possible distortions that could occur in either case (you do not need to determine the symmetries of vibrations for the distorted states).
