Summary:A shape measuring apparatus includes: an image pick-up section that captures an image of two reflection spot groups of a pattern reflected in a first surface M1 and a second surface of a transparent flat plate and generates an image containing two reflection images separated in a direction perpendicular to a direction of extending; a first surface reflection spot group estimating section that estimates from the image a first surface reflection spot group of the pattern generated by the first surface of the transparent flat plate; an inclination angle calculating section that calculates an inclination angle of the first surface of the transparent flat plate at an estimated position of the first surface reflection spot group; and a surface shape determining section that determines a shape of the first surface of the transparent flat plate based on the calculated inclination angle.
