Trigonometry is outside the scope of GMAT.
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)

Vineeshp is correct. Luckily, you won't see any Trig on the GMAT.

This question is asking you about a 45-45-90 triangle. The ratio of the sides in a 45-45-90 is x: x: x*sq.rt of 2.

The question says that n = 1, so the sides of this triangle will be 1, 1, and sq. root of 2.

Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Sin 45 = 1 / sq. root of 2

Again, this is totally outside of the GMAT scope, but if you need to review more Trig, I recommend Purple Math's explanations: https://www.purplemath.com/modules/basirati.htm
