[SOLVED] Weight/Normal Force of a block
If P = 1.98, M = 1, Theta = 45 degrees what is the weight of m in Newtons?

I'm apparently doing this wrong. I was trying to solve for the normal force given that N = Mg/cos theta but this is just 9.8 so I'm doing something wrong. Any advice would be appreciated.
