The equations relating polar to rectangular coordinates are (using "t" instead of theta because Algebra.com's formula software doesn't draw theta):
or and
(Since your polar equation has no "r" we will not need the last equation.)

Since theta is 45 in your problem:

Since we get:

Multiplying both sides by x we get:

which is the answer.
