B737-200 stall speed Flap 40, gear down, wings level...93kts, stick shaker 103kts, initial buffet 100kts.
All with wings level. Pitch angle will not effect the speeds, unless the pitch up increased the load factor.
To calculate the speed at 45 AoB, consult any good aerodynamics book for the formula.

Pitch angle does effect the stall speed.
An aircraft with a (steady) pitch angle of 90° has a stall speed of zero, as the wings aren't providing lift.
The question is impossible to answer, as the stall speed varies with the load factor (the positive g load) and an instantanious picture of the aircraft can't tell you that.
If the aircraft was in a steady 20° pitch up climb, 45° AoB turn, then you could find an answer, however I doubt if that is the case here!
