ac impedance ...find power

this is the circuit...attached...i have to find appartent power ( S) , Average Power (P) and power factor (p)...i have tried this question a lot times but every time i get incorrect result ...please solve this question...

Thanks

u just have 2 find the apparent power and average power ...u have been given a circuit having L & C...first u have to find its impedances then find the S and P...the formula for S is S=1/2 Vm Im...and for P=1/2 Vm I am Cos (phi)...thats it...i have tried by this but i didnt get the correct answer...
 
Your naswers should be 676VA at an angle of 58.16 degrees. PF=52%, Power = 357 watts. Now, what have you done so far?

Hope this helps.
