The hawaiian islands are located where the pacific plate is: MOVING OVER A HOT SPOT OR MANTLE PLUME.

Explanation:

The Hawaiian islands are islands that were formed due to the rise of heat in the deep region of the Earth's mantle. The rise of the heat caused the production of magma which forced its way through the Earth's crust and solidified thereby resulting in the formation of the Hawaiian Islands.

The Hawaiian Islands are located where an oceanic tectonic plate which is found beneath the Pacific Ocean also known as the Pacific plate is moving over a hot spot or mantle plume.
