How do I display two open sites at the same time on screen instead of switching between tabs?

I need to open two different websites using Firefox. They appear as tabs, but I can only view one tab at a time and continually have to switch back and forth. I need to have both separate websites open and displayed simultaneously on the screen. Is there a way to do this or an add-on that will support multiple open windows on screen?

You can open all the pages in separate windows and resize and position the windows horizontally or vertically to have them both visible at the same time.

Note the you can drag a tab slightly downward in the browsing window to tear off the tab or use the right-click menu of the tab (Move to New Window).
