It is to calculate the extent of the shape in 2-dimensional space.
You would find the area of the inside and outside shape (pretending that the inside shape was not in the outside shape). then, you would take the area of the outside shape and subtract the area of the inside shape.
The area of a shape is measured in square units
Shape of what ?
Inside of a shape.

I assume you mean the calculation required. Split the irregular shape up into shapes for which you can find the area (eg rectangles, triangles), then the area of the shape is the sum of the areas of the smaller shapes.

Inside of a shape.
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.
Such as? If you can break the shape up into triangles you can find the area that way. Or, you can get into calculus-based equations if you have an equation for the random shape.
Fill in the blanks so that the shape makes a square and find the area of that. Then find the area of the shape you added. When you have both areas, subtract the greater from the smaller.
You times the length by width, to get the area of the 2D shape.
