On the off chance that you are discussing 4 phosphorus particles fortified together (which does not bode well), then the lewis structure would be p - p - p and one more above or underneath the inside p. 
Hybridization would be Sp2 since there are 3 ligands (trigonal planar). 
For 4 phosphorus molecules are clung to a focal carbon. P - C - P and there is one P on the highest point of C and one beneath the C. Hence for 4 ligands the hyb. would be sp3.

Thank you.
So, if they just ask us about P4 hybridisation,I Better consider it to be :: sp2 hybridised.
