Final Answer : 1
Steps:
1) Let ABC be a right triangle ,where
A = 90° , B =C =45°
Two legs are AB & AC.
2) In ABC,
tan(45°) = AC/AB
=> 1 = AC/AB
=> AC/AB = 1
=> Ratio of length of one-leg to the other leg is 1.

Thank you for asking this question. This question isnt that hard as much it looks to be.
As you know if two of the angles are same which are 45. The triangle forms an isosceles triangle. In this case it a right angled isosceles triangle.
So basically isosceles angled triangle has two same sides which will be the legs. So it will be in 1:1
I hope this answer can help you in some manner.
