A side of the triangle below has been extended to form an exterior angle of 124°. Find the value of xx.

Since the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles, we know that $x+60 = 124$. Solving for $x$ gives us $x = \boxed{64}$. [asy]

pair A,B,C,D;

A=(0,0);

B=(50,0);

C=(15,25);

D=(-18,-30);

draw(D--B--C--D);

draw(C--A);

label("$A$",A,S);

label("$B$",B,S);

label("$C$",C,N);

label("$D$",D,S);

label("$60^\circ$",(23,22),S);

label("$124^\circ$",(5,-8),S);

label("$x^\circ$",(43,-10),S);
