Those two directions are 90 degrees apart.
(Or 270 if you compare them the other way around.)
135 degrees is SE
Wind direction is usually identified by the heading from which it is blowing, in degrees (like the 360 degrees of the compass). More commonly, it is referred to in
The reason for this is that it is a surveyor's compass with fixed sites along the north south axis and this allows easy non reversed readings of bearings. When you turn the compass siting on this axis the needle of course follows magnetic north. Align the sights with magnetic north and then turn the compass clockwise 45 degrees which should be North East or N 45 degrees E and you will see that the needle is showing the correct bearing because the East and West are reversed.

To find east on a compass hold it with 'N' or north at the top. East is 90 degrees or one quarter of the circle to the right.

There are 180 degrees between north and south in a compass rose.
The least count of a prismatic compass is typically 0.5 degrees. This means that the compass can measure angles accurately to within 0.5 degrees.
112.5 degrees on a compass falls between East Southeast (ESE) and East (E).

A bearing of 450 degrees on a compass corresponds to due east. In compass bearings, 0 degrees represents north, 90 degrees represents east, 180 degrees represents south, and 270 degrees represents west. Therefore, a bearing of 450 degrees would be 90 degrees past due east.
There are a few different types of compass roses, including the Mariner's rose, the Sidereal rose, and the Classical rose. Variations exist with the common compass rose in that it depends on how many points or degrees one desires in said compass rose.
