The best way to find the volume of an irregular shape is to split it up into shapes that you know, find the volumes of those individual pieces, and then add up all of the volumes of the split pieces to get your total volume of the irregular shape.
split it up into two shapes. if there is a square and rectangle in the irregular shape split it up and find area of square and area of rectangle and add them. there now Sign in to be notified when this answer changes. You'll also enjoy the full benefits of being part of the Answers.com community.
It could be any irregular shape whose sides add up to 36cm as for example a scalene triangle
look it up in a math book
You break it up into smaller shapes which are less irregular. If these are more regular, you can calculate their contribution to the perimeter, and their area. You can then add these together.

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.
Well first of all you have to split it up into simpler shapes then multiply the bottom to the side to get the area. Hope this helps you

Irregular shapes are made up of regular ones; add them together.

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.

There are several methods of measuring an irregular shape's volume.Filling it with a known volume of a substance until full.Summing up the Mathematical calculation of sections.
when its a irregular shape you divide it up
