(0 , -6 )

Explanation:

To convert from Polar to Cartesian coordinates , use the formulae that links them.

$∙ x = r cos θ$ $• x = rcostheta$

$∙ y = r sin θ$ $• y = rsintheta$

here r= 6 and $θ = \frac{3 π}{2}$ $theta =(3pi)/2$

hence x $= 6 cos (\frac{3 π}{2}) = 0$ $= 6cos((3pi)/2) = 0$

and y $= 6 sin (\frac{3 π}{2}) = - 6$ $= 6sin((3pi)/2) = -6$
