No. A hot spot volcano forms in the middle of a plate, for reasons nobody is sure of. Mount. Pinatubo is formed due to the destructive plate boundary between the Pacific (oceanic ) and the Eurasian (continental) plates.

A hot spot volcano is also called an 'intra-plate volcano'. One theory if that it forms over a rising convection-plume within the Mantle, but the existence of such relatively narrow columns of slightly less dense rock is a matter of some debate, being very hard to prove convincingly. Structures deep within the planet can only be detected by analysing many seismographs from around the world, and my own thought is that the acoustic properties of a mantle-plume may mean very limited effects on seismic waves, making it hard to "see" against the surrounding Mantle.

Hawaii is the classic example of such a volcano, and it has left a trail across part of the Pacific floor as the plate itself has drifted over the hot spot.

Volcanoes also form on constructive-plate boundaries, and tend to be more benign than the destructive-boundary cousins. Example - Iceland.
== == == == Mt Pinatubo is on a convergent/destructive plate boundary
No. It is associated with a subduction zone.
No. Mount Pinatubo is on a subuction zone.
Yes, Mount Pinatubo is on the ring of fire.
Mount Pinatubo is not associated with a hot spot. It is associated with a subduction zone.
No. A supervolcano is a volcano that produces an eruption of VEI 7 or 8. The largest know eruption of Mount Pinatubo was a VEI 6.
No. Mount Pinatubo is associated with a subduction zone.
No. Pinatubo is associated with a subduction zone.
Yes. Mount Pinatubo produced one of the largest explosive eruptions in recorded history.
It was formed on a hot spot
Pinatubo is surrounded largely by ignimbrite, formed from enormous pyroclastic flows.
HOW MOUNT SHASTA WAS FORMED...It was built from repeated eruptions throughout the years,Mt. Shasta is in Sacramento and it a composite volcano.
Kilauea is not associated with a plate boundary, it and the other Hawaiian volcanoes are the result of a hot spot.
Krakatoa is not associated with a hot spot. It is associated with a subduction zone.

Mt. St. Helens was formed when the North American Plate passed over a hot spot on the Earth's crust. A hot spot is a weak spot in the Earth's crust that magma can escape through. This hot spot is now the vent of Mt. St. Helens.
We can't pin it down to a specific year, but Mount Pinatubo is belived to have first formed about 1.1 million eyars ago.
HOW MOUNT SHASTA WAS FORMED...It was built from repeated eruptions throughout the years,Mt. Shasta is in Sacramento and it a composite volcano.
yes Mt Pinatubo is a composite volcano
Mt. Pinatubo is in a subduction zone. subduction is when one tectonic plate slides under another. In the Mt. Pinatubo area the Eurasian Plate slides under the Philippine Sea Plate at the Manila Trench.
Kilauea is not associated with a plate boundary, it and the other Hawaiian volcanoes are the result of a hot spot.
Pinatubo is not in any state. It is in the Philippines.
