The demand equation p = 1200 - q2
set E = 1
1200 - q2 =2q2
3q2 = 1200 and q = 20 items
so if quantity is 20 items then you will have maximum revenue.
Since you know the purpose of unit elasticity is at q = 20 you currently need to figure out where elasticity and inelasticity will happen. Return to you elasticity formula and supplement the values p = 19 and after that p = 21
as per data over, this interest is elastic on the interval (0,20) and inelastic on the interval (20,).
