Zoning Making Me Dizzy...

R4 District, Detached home in queens, small house large lot, family looking to extend in any direction. Current dims if standing in front of property. Rear yard 30′-0″, Front yard 20′-0″ Right side yard 7′-7
“, Left side yard 36′-0″. I believe F.A.R. .75 with 20% bonus for attic. I quess my question is in what directions can my family extend or what are the minimum dimensions for the yards. I believe the rear yard must remain 30′-0″ & front yard can be 18′-0”. The lot is on dead end street, but in middle of corner house, & apartment building beyond on left. Any help would be greatly appreciated, & Thanks in advance..
