step 1

Find out the measure of angle B

Applying the law of sines


(a)/(sinA)=(b)/(sinB)

substitute given values


(6)/(s\imaginaryI n150)=(18)/(s\imaginaryI nB)

Solve for B


\begin{gathered} sinB=\frac{18*s\mathrm{i}n150^o}{6} \\ \\ sinB=1.5 \end{gathered}

The greater value of the sine is 1

so

The triangle does not exist
