I accidentally got rid of the area where you type in the web addresses -- when I right click at the top of my browser, I don't get the option of bringing it back -- how do I get it back?

I was trying to maximize the space for displaying the web page. I right clicked at the top and unchecked two of the options. One of those options was the area where I enter the website addresses. When I right click to try to restore the original configuration, the options to check are not there. I shut down and restarted the browser, but it is still missing the area I enter the website addresses and the other line I unchecked.

Hit the Alt key to show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar and the Navigation bar, so they have a check-mark.

Can someone tell me how to get it back on a Mac? I open my Safari, and the address line is there. I may have to go back to Safari.
