See figure attached for my attempt at part b).

What am I doing wrong? My voltage for the generator is slighty off.

I has an angle equal to -arccos(PF).

 

You chose to use the load current as your reference (0°), but it looks like in calculating -Vg + VTL + VL = 0 you switched to load voltage as the reference (VL = 860<0°).

That was it!

Thanks Zazoo!

 

jegues, how did you get the impedance of the transmission to be 0.2+0.4j

(2 + j4)mΩ/km

There's 100km,

(2 + j4)mΩ/km * 100km = (0.2 + j0.4)Ω
