Step-by-step explanation

We are asked to select the option that would not be located at the given point

To do so, let us find the original coordinates of the given polar point

The point is located 6 units away from the origin in a direction of 270 degrees

The equivalent coordinates are


\begin{gathered} (6,(3\pi)/(2)) \\ (6,(-\pi)/(2)) \\ (-6,90^0) \end{gathered}

Thus, we are to eliminate any option that is not equivalent to the above, we are left with


(6,(-3\pi)/(2))

Thus, the answer is option A
