enlarge, extend

(かくちょう) To extend or physically enlarge a thing (an extended family, enlarge the factory).
 
げる(ひろげる) To spread or widen (to spread a blanket on a bed, to widen a street, open one’s arms). Like the related term 拡張, but 広げる is only in 2 dimensions, I guess.   $$$
 
げる(ひろげる) To spread or extend... 90% the same as regular 広げる. BUT, 拡げる-with-aー手 has one special meaning which 広げる-with-noー手 does NOT have:to expand your markets overseas, to expand your territory, to expand the circulation of your newspaper.
 
(かくだい) More formal than 拡張:Literally it means to zoom in on or magnify. Figuratively it means to escalate (a conflict) or scale-up (a buildup of some sort)
