Therefore, the value of the exterior angle of the triangle is
84\textdegree.

The exterior angle theorem states that the measure of the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two remote interior angles. Here the exterior angle is
(3x+6)\textdegree and the two remote interior angles are
24\textdegree and
(2x+18)\textdegree. Hence,

2x+18+24=3x+16

3x-2x=18+24-16

x=26

Substituting the value of x in (3x+16), we get:

3(26)+6=78+6

=
84\textdegree

Therefore, the value of the exterior angle of the triangle is
84\textdegree.
