We are tasked with converting the given double integral from Cartesian to polar coordinates. Let's go through the process systematically.

### The original integral:
\[
\int_0^{\sqrt{4}} \int_{-x}^{x} dy \, dx
\]

### Step 1: Conversion to polar coordinates
Recall that in polar coordinates:
- \( x = r \cos(\theta) \)
- \( y = r \sin(\theta) \)
- \( dx\,dy = r \, dr\,d\theta \)

We need to convert the limits of integration to polar coordinates. The given region is bounded by \( 0 \leq x \leq \sqrt{4} \) and \( -x \leq y \leq x \).

This describes the region in the first quadrant, where:
- \( r \) ranges from \( 0 \) to \( 2 \) (since \( \sqrt{4} = 2 \)),
- \( \theta \) ranges from \( -\frac{\pi}{4} \) to \( \frac{\pi}{4} \).

### Step 2: Rewrite the limits

With polar coordinates, the bounds and integrand are adjusted as follows:
\[
\int_0^{\sqrt{4}} \int_{-x}^{x} dy \, dx = \int_0^{2} \int_{-\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} r \, d\theta \, dr
\]

### Step 3: Perform the integration

1. **Integrate with respect to \( \theta \):**
   \[
   \int_{-\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} r \, d\theta = r \left[ \theta \right]_{-\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} = r \left( \frac{\pi}{4} - \left(-\frac{\pi}{4}\right) \right) = r \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}
   \]

2. **Integrate with respect to \( r \):**
   \[
   \int_0^2 r \cdot \frac{\pi}{2} \, dr = \frac{\pi}{2} \int_0^2 r \, dr = \frac{\pi}{2} \left[ \frac{r^2}{2} \right]_0^2 = \frac{\pi}{2} \cdot \frac{4}{2} = \frac{\pi \cdot 2}{2} = \pi
   \]

Thus, the value of the integral is \( \pi \).

### Filling in the blanks:
With this information, the corresponding values are:
- \( a = 0 \)
- \( b = 2 \)
- \( c = -\frac{\pi}{4} \)
- \( d = \frac{\pi}{4} \)

\[
\int_0^{\sqrt{4}} \int_{-x}^{x} dy \, dx = \int_0^2 \int_{-\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} r \, d\theta \, dr = \pi
\]
