Answer

The graph is a circle with a center at $(1,0)$ and a radius of $r=2$. See details below.

Work Step by Step

$\begin{align*} \vert z-1\vert &= 2 \\ \vert (x+iy)-1\vert &= 2 \\ \vert (x-1) +iy\vert &= 2 \\ \sqrt{(x-1)^2 + y^2} &= 2 \\ (x-1)^2 + y^2 &= 4 \end{align*}$ The graph is a circle with a center at $(1,0)$ and a radius of $r=2$.
