Given a right-angled triangle MKN angle M-45 degrees leg NK-4 angle-90 degrees. Find MK, MN.

Leg NK is opposite to corner M.

The ratio of the opposite leg to the adjacent leg is equal to the tangent of the angle:

tg M = KN / MK.

Hence MK = KN / tg M = 4 / tg 45 ° = 4/1 = 4.

The ratio of the opposite leg to the hypotenuse is equal to the sine of the angle:

sin M = KN / MN.

Hence, MN = KN / sin M = 4 / sin 45 ° = 4 / (1 / √2) = 4√2.
