If the sin is positive and the cos is negative,
the angle has to be in the 2nd
quadrant.

If cos(μ) = -sin(45°), as it is given in the condition, then there are two possibilities for μ :


    a)  EITHER  μ = 135° + n*360°,


    b)  OR      μ = 225° + n*360°,


where n is any integer number.


Ignore the answer by @josmiceli, since it is partly incomplete and partly irrelevant.
