The equation \( \theta = 45^\circ \) represents a line in polar coordinates that extends infinitely in both directions at an angle of \( 45^\circ \) from the origin. In polar coordinates, for any given angle \( \theta \), the radius \( r \) can take any positive or negative value.

Thus, the correct representation in a table would have a constant \( \theta \) value of \( 45^\circ \) with varying \( r \) values.

The first option fits this description:

\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
\theta & 45^\circ & 45^\circ & 45^\circ & 45^\circ \\
\hline
r & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]

This table shows that for \( \theta = 45^\circ \), the radius \( r \) can take the values 1, 2, 3, and 4, which perfectly represents the graph of the equation \( \theta = 45^\circ \).
