can't find arrange for extended desktop

i am trying to connect an external monitor for extending my desktop on a MacBook and I looked it up on the apple site, however the "arrange" option doesn't appear when I go into displays in system preferences. When I plug in the monitor via hdmi, it causes mine to flicker and then go dark.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15
