A cube is hardly an irregularly shaped object. Measuring it is the defining term of area and volume.
A cube is defined as having twelve sides, all lengths uniform, all angles right angles.
If the length of any side is 'a' then
area = 6*a*a
volume = a*a*a

the difference between the an irregular and regular solids are that an irregular solid has sides that are not even and you cant measuer with a ruler and you can not measuer it exactly. a regular solid you can measure without a problem with a ruler.
The answer depends on the size of the cube: it could be a micrometre, vernier callipers, a ruler, a tape measure.
-- Measure the length of any one edge. -- Multiply that number by itself. -- Multiply the result by the number again. -- The result is now the volume of the cube.
No.
Well, darling, the instrument you're looking for is a ruler or a caliper. These bad boys are perfect for measuring the sides of a regular solid like a cube or a rectangular prism. So, whip out that ruler and get measuring, honey!
