To find the area of the figure, we can divide the figure into two rectangles:

The first rectangle has a length of 18 feet and a width of 9 feet.
The second rectangle has a length of 18 feet and a width of 18 feet.
Therefore, the area of the figure is:

(18 x 9) + (18 x 18) = 162 + 324 = 486 square feet
