what is the use of sizeof in c++...

To get the size of an class or struct or type.
I.e. sizeof(int) returns the size in bytes of an integer.

These values can vary from system to system, but can be standardised across systems.

In the case of an object, it will get the size of what ever type that object is. And by type I mean class, struct or base type.
