Inferring the 3D Shapes of Extremely Metal-poor Galaxies from Sets of Projected Shapes

The three-dimensional (3D) shape of a galaxy inevitably is tied to how it has formed and evolved and to its dark matter halo. Local extremely metal-poor galaxies (XMPs; defined as having an average gas-phase metallicity
