Answer:

Submerge it in a liquid and measure the change in volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you submerge a irregular solid in water (for example), if you measure the initial volume reading, and the final volume reading after the solid is submerged, you can use the change in volume to calculate the volume of the solid because the change in volume equals the volume of the solid.
