Assuming the equation was
Explanation:
(Assuming that the equation you meant is
When converting from polar to rectangular, it's important to know that:
#x=rcostheta# #y=rsintheta#
The equation can be rewritten using
#r=4csctheta" "=>" "r=4/sintheta" "=>" "rsintheta=4#
With the identity from before:
#y=4#
which is a horizontal line.
