Question 87457: Choose the rectangular coordinates for the following polar coordinate: (-6, 3pi/2)
is it (-6, 0)??

Actually, the point (-6, 3pi/2) would be (0,6). The angle 3pi/2 is in the direction of the negative y axis. The fact that r=-6, means to go 6 units in the OPPOSITE direction (since it is negative!), so this would be in the direction of the POSITIVE y-axis.
Final answer: in rectangular coordinates (0,6).
