Step-by-step explanation
Let current in the inductance is , through the capacitor is and through resistance is at any instance as shown in the figure.

According to the Kirchoff's junction law, .
At resonance hence . Also, current through the capacitor and inductor have phase difference of . Therefore, they will form destructive interference and hence the current through the resistance will be .
