It would be 1200

Explanation:

Given the forces are equal, it would be reasonable to assume they have the same angle between them as in the diagram below:

If we then consider components of forces in the x direction:

F2cos300F1cos900F3cos300
F2cos300F3cos300

Since F1=F2=F3 then the above equates to nil

Similarly in the y direction:

F1F2sin300F3sin300
F10.5F20.5F3=0

Hence no resultant force
