Kilauea is located in the centre of a crustal plate (the pacific plate) away from any plate boundaries. The Hawaiian island chain exists due to the presence of a hotspot (potentially caused by a mantle plume) under the centre of this plate causing volcanism.

A convergent plate boundary.
What type of plate boundary exists?
divergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move apart from each other. convergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move towards each other so that one plate can sink beneath the other. transform plate boundary- a boundary where one plate slips along side another plate.
What boundary can a trench be found?
The boundary where a trench can be found is called a convergent plate boundary. It can also be termed a destructive plate boundary in plate tectonics.
