Extending something usually refers to adding to the length of something.
“We needed to extend the cord so it would reach the plug, so we used an extension cord.”
Expanding something usually means that you are adding to something in multiple directions.
“The country expanded its territory.”
“He expanded on the main point during his speech.”
