Graphing equations where x and y have trigonometric functions applied to them in r

Time:12-03

I am trying to graph the function ((sin(a*(pi/10)) x)^2 (cos(a*(pi/10)) y)^2 -1)/(0.7*abs(x))=y (with a being any value from 1-20) in r but am struggling as all the r functions seem to need to have equations in the format function(x) = y with no ys in function(x), and no trigonometric functions being applied to y.

I've tried: curve((((sin(1*(pi/10)) x)^2 (cos(1*(pi/10)) y)^2 -1)/(0.7abs(x)))) and curve((((sin(1(pi/10)) x)^2 (cos(1*(pi/10)) y)^2 -1)/(0.7*abs(x)))-y) where I've specified y as: y <- seq(-3,3,length=100) (and a=1) but I get warning messages of:

Warning messages:
1: In (sin(1 * (pi/10))   x)^2   (cos(1 * (pi/10))   y)^2 :
  longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length
2: In (((sin(1 * (pi/10))   x)^2   (cos(1 * (pi/10))   y)^2 - 1)/(0.7 *  :
  longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length

and the graphs it produced are not right (I have checked by plotting it on Wolfram alpha).

My problem seems to be the same as the one here enter image description here
