It's only illegial if the ball passes over a rectangular backboard right? Meaning that in Situation 2 it would depend on the shape of the backboard? Or not?
NFHS Rule 7-1-2 Note: "When the rectangular backboard is used, the ball is out of bounds if it passes over the backboard."

Yes. For the few HS gyms that still use a fan-shaped backboard, the ball can legally pass over the backboard (so long as it doesn't hit supports, wires etc.).
