A 3-phase, 11kV, 10 MVA synchronous generator is connected to an inductive load of power factor 
via a lossless line with a per-phase inductive reactance of 
. The per-phase synchronous reactance of the generator is 
with negligible armature resistance. If the generator is producing the rated current at the rated voltage, then the power factor at the terminal of the generator is
0.63 lagging
0.87 lagging
0.63 leading
0.87 leading
The reactance of Lossless Line is,
Load pf angle 
Generator Terminal Voltage,
Load Current, 
Assume receiving end voltage as reference, 
By KVL,
Since the line is lossless, power at sending end i.e. generator terminals must be same as load power
Sending end pf,
