Help! Equation Solution Request.

How do I "define" a semi-circle by an equation when Y is linear?

I know the cartesian formula:

x = 4 * cos ( t * 180 )

y = 4 * sin ( t * 180 )

z = 0

But I need to compensate for the trajectory (Y) which has a linear value.

I need the formula applied only to X given Y is linear 0-1.

I want to sweep a VSS to make this shape. The trajpar is the given value (t as Y):
