Lift Increase in a Level Turn
I´m kinda stuck here.
In a 45 degree turn L=1/0.707 = 1.41 Okay I get that, but how do they get 0.707?

I get that the the formula is: cos Ø= ADJ(1)/HYP(L)
transposing this formula gives, 1/ COS Ø

How do I get the 45 degrees to become 0.707?

Anyone that wanna help me and explain this step by step?
