The Earth is only approximately spherical, not perfectly so. Its polar radius is 6,357 km while the equatorial radius is 6,378 km and a mean radius of 6,371 km. These give estimates for the distance around the Earth, at latitude 45, of between 28,243 km and 28,337 km.

How many miles is it around the earth at the 45th parallel?

The Earth's circumference at the 45th parallel is approximately 16,042 miles (25,819 kilometers). This is calculated by multiplying the Earth's average circumference of about 24,901 miles (40,075 kilometers) by the cosine of 45 degrees, which is approximately 0.7071. This calculation assumes the Earth is a perfect sphere, which is a simplification as the Earth is actually an oblate spheroid.

Why does a gnomon on a sundial have to be 45 degrees?

It doesn't. The gnomon is supposed to match the latitude of the location where the sundial is placed. If the latitude is 30 degrees and the gnomon is 45 the entire sundial will have to be tilted to keep correct time. Another way to describe this is to say that the gnomon should be parallel to the Earth's axis.
