Capture theory
An asteroid's brightness may change as it rotates because different surface features reflect varying amounts of sunlight towards Earth. As the asteroid rotates, different surface areas are illuminated, causing the brightness to fluctuate in a repeating pattern. This variation in brightness can provide valuable information about the asteroid's shape, surface composition, and rotation period.
Its a irregular shape!
A galaxy that has no discernable shape or structure is typically referred to as irregular. Irregular galaxies do not have a distinct spiral or elliptical shape, and can exhibit a chaotic, disorganized appearance. These galaxies often contain young stars and a mix of gas and dust.
Asteroids have irregular shapes due to their formation process and lack of gravitational forces to pull them into a spherical shape.

If the asteroid is large, its own gravity will pull it together, into a more or less spherical shape. With smaller asteroids, the gravity is not large enough, and the shape will be irregular.
No. An asteroid is composed of rock and/or metal and usually has an irregular shape.
A dwarf planet is larger, big enough to make itself into an approximately spherical shape. Asteroids are smaller and more irregular in shape.

When Jupitar was formed a huge asteroid hit Jupitar and was fused onto it and then stayed like the same shape that it is today.
A square is not an irregular shape and conversely. So the square of an irregular shape cannot exist.A square is not an irregular shape and conversely.

An irregular shape!
It couldn't as it's mass causes it to be spherical. To be like an asteroid, it would have to be the size of an asteroid, and then life would never have started. You would never have been born, and this question would never have existed.
Because of all the other stuff in space it hits deforms the shape. To be honest it most likely wern't a good shape to start with as they are just bits of rock broken off from planets etc.
Irregular - that's where they get their name from.
