(You can also visit website https://support.apple.com/en-sg/HT202351)
When attaching a display that the software has not seen before, the display
will default to being extended to the right of the main display.
To configure the settings for each of your USB attached displays, select
‘Displays’ from the ‘System Preferences’ menu. This will open a ‘Display
Preferences’ window on each of your attached displays allowing you to
configure each display as required.
It is possible to use the ‘Gather Windows’ button to bring all the ‘Display Preferences’ windows onto the main display.
Setting the Display Resolutions
To change the display’s resolution, select an available resolution from the
Display Preferences window of the display you wish to change
The resolutions available depend on both the enabled product and the
capabilities of the connected display.
If you wish to rotate your display, you can configure the orientation using
the ‘Rotate’ drop down. Select the appropriate angle of rotation to match your
display’s set up.
Setting the Position of Displays
If your computer is connected to more than two displays, you can specify that
some are mirrored displays and others show the extended desktop. A mirrored
display shows the same content as the main display whereas an extended display
will be an extension to your existing desktop. You can arrange your displays
so that they match the physical layout of your displays by selecting the
‘Arrangement’ pane within Display Preferences. This ensures that you can
easily navigate between all connected displays. 
To move the position of a display, click and hold the display you wish to move
then drag it to the desired position.

display to its new position.

the primary display. Checking the “Mirror Display” on the ‘Arrangement’ pane
enables this feature.

You can change which is the main display by moving the Menu Bar between
displays. Changing the main display affects where new windows appear and the
position of the Dock. The ‘Menu Bar’ can be moved so that it is shown on an
alternative display. Clicking the white menu bar and dragging it to the
desired display will perform this action.
