Use the relationship between the angles in the figure to answer the question. Which equation can be used to find the value of x? Drag and drop the equation into the box. x = 37 + 53x=90−53​​x=180−37+53​x=90−(37+53)x=180−(37+53) Two lines and a ray intersect to form 5 angles. Starting at the upper left, three angles are labeled 37 degrees, x degrees, and 53 degrees. These angles form a straight line.

If the three angles 37°, x° and 53° form a straight line, then:
37°+x°+53°=180°
Grouping terms:
x+(37+53)=180
Solving for x:
x=180-(37+53)

Answer: Fifth option: x=180-(37+53)
