Not sure why you're posting twice about the same reason (https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/missing-ellispse-tool-from-inventor-2018/td-p/7714861) and also not sure what you mean by the flange menu?

Hi! Ellipse tool is listed under Circle. Find the Circle command and click the small arrow button to reveal other commands including Ellipse.
I am not sure I understand your prior question. Flange command is available in sheet metal environment. You will need to start a new sheet metal part or convert a regular part to a sheet metal part.
You sound like a new user. Please go through Inventor tutorials first to get basic understanding of how Inventor works.
Many thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
As stated I see you've posted the same issue twice but under different titles.
Not sure why, but being a new user as it sure seems you are, know that commands are included or grouped under other commands. Anywhere you see a small black down arrow on the icon of the menu, it signifies there are more commands under such. It's the very same issue in a command window/menu such as Extrude, etc. You'll either see this down arrow or a button at the lower right of ">>" meaning there's a submenu of more options.
As suggested, go thru the tutorials included with the software, they are a great resource. Search these forums, search YouTube, etc. Or best yet, get professional training from a certified instructor. See if there's a training center near you. Most will be at an Autodesk reseller.
But know, we are here to help.
Cheers,
Jim O'Flaherty

The Flange tools are available in the Sheet Metal Environment.
Either
1. Start from a Sheet Metal Template
or
2. Go to Environments>Convert to Sheet Metal to get access to the Flange tools.
