A graduated cylinder may be used for small objects that are insoluble in a selected liquid. But that method would not work for determining the volume of a sugar cube (soluble in water) or a motor car (won't fit in a graduated cylinder!).
An L shaped figure is a plane figure and so will not have a volume.
The surface area of a figure does not provide enough information to determine its volume. Indeed, it does no even determine its shape.The volume can have any positive value up to 474.018 cubic units.The surface area of a figure does not provide enough information to determine its volume.

A beaker. Simply fill the beaker with a known quantity of liquid. Drop the object into the beaker, and measure the difference in the fluid levels.
Because only regular-shaped objects have a consistent length, width, height, and shape. When dealing with an object composed of differing shapes, your must calculate each portion separately and then add them. For instance, if you have a swimming pool of two depths and want to determine cubic feet, you would have to calculate the volume for each section and then add them.
the water displacement method
Measuring irregularly shaped objects by water displacement helps to determine their volume accurately, as irregular shapes make it difficult to measure using traditional methods such as rulers or calipers. By immersing the object in water and calculating the volume of water displaced, we can determine the volume of the object regardless of its shape.
You fill up water ina beaker, measure the volume of the water as it originally was, then drop in an irregulary-shaped object, measure that volume, and subtrect the two. The difference is the volume of the object.
If the body is a solid not soluble in water then we can keep it immersed in a measurable jar. Just noting down the level of water raised and getting the difference in the level with the initial one, we can get the volume of the irregular shaped object.
A ruler or other measuring instrument may be used to determine the dimensions of a regularly shaped abject, and the volume may then be calculated by applying the dimensions to the applicable formula.
The volume of the object.
First you need to get a graduaded cylinder and then you need to fill it up enough to submerge the entire object then you drop the object into the water and you look how much the water level rised and that is the volume of the object.
graduated cylinder
A graduated cylinder can be used to measure the volume of irregular-shaped objects by displacement method. Place the object in the cylinder filled with water, and measure the change in water volume to calculate the object's volume.
Yes
I would assume that you would use displacement to determine volume when the object is extremely complicatedly shaped.
Drop the object into a graduated cylinder 50 mL half full of water and find the difference in volume. If it is too big for a measuring cylinder then make a small hole in the side of a plastic container, fill with water to this hole, drop the object in and collect the run off. Measure the volume of the run off.
Put solid in a container ; fill container with water to a known container volume; take object out of container and read the remaining volume. subtract this remaining volumefrom the known volume. This result is the volume of the regular or irregular shaped solid.
