To find the area, first divide the shape into regular, simple shapes. Then use formulas to find the area of the smaller, regular shapes. Lastly, add up all the smaller areas to find the area of the original shape.

There is no such formula. To determine the area of an irregular plane shape split it into known shapes such as rectangles, triangles, segments of a circle etc. Determine the area(s) of each of these and sum the results to find the total area.
You approximate the irregular shape with many small regular figure, for example, long and thin rectangles.
You need to measure the length of each line segment or arc and then sum them.
If a shape is two dimensional it has NO volume - volume is an attribute of THREE dimensional shapes.If you meant the AREA of an irregular two dimensional shape, then divided it up into areas which are not irregular and so you can calculates them, and sum the areas of these non-irregular shapes.If you meant the volume of an irregular THREE dimensional shape, then a similar process can be followed by dividing it up into three dimensional shapes you can can calculate the volume of and summing them, though if it is an irregular object that you are physically holding, then you can find its volume by finding the increase in volume of a liquid (In a regular container) when the object is submerged into that liquid.
