How about telling us about your hardware and which version of OS X you're using? In the meantime, make sure you've selected "detect displays" from System Preferences, Displays.

The arrangement option only shows up if the Mac detects that an external display has been plugged in. Try unplugging and replugging in the display (while it's turned on) and also try clicking the Detect Displays button to rescan for secondary monitors.
