Find the area of an isosceles trapezoid if its bases are 3 cm and 8 cm, and one of the angles is 135 °.

The area of an isosceles trapezoid can be found by multiplying one base by another base and dividing by the sine of the angle between one base and the side.

S = (3 cm * 8 cm) ÷ sin135 ° = 24 cm² ÷ 0.707107 = 33.9 cm².

Answer: the area of the trapezoid is 33.9 cm².
