The appropriate words are: equal,
Explanation of Solution
The method of symmetrical components is used to solve the unbalanced system. This method is also termed as three-component method. The balanced set of components are positive sequence component, negative sequence component and zero-sequence component.
Positive Sequence components: The positive-sequence system is represented by a balanced system of phasors having the same phase sequence (and therefore positive phase rotation) as the original unbalanced system. The phasors of the positive-sequence system are equal in magnitude and displaced from each other by
Negative Sequence components: The negative-sequence system is represented by a balanced system of phasors having the opposite phase sequence (and therefore negative phase rotation) to the original system. The phasors of the negative-sequence system are also equal in magnitude and displaced from each other by
Zero Sequence components: The zero-sequence system is represented by three single phasors that are equal in magnitude and angular displacement between all the phasors is
Therefore, in positive-sequence component, there are three phasors of equal magnitude but
