     An isosceles right triangle has a hypotenuse of h = 18√2 inches. 

     2x^2 = h^2 = 2*18^2

     The area of the isosceles triangle is (1/2)(18)(18) = 162 inches^2

    2x^2 = h^2 = (18√2)^2 = 648

    x^2 = 324

    x = 18

    area = 1/2 * base * height

    base = height = 18

    area = 1/2 * 18 * 18 = 162
