He came out to welcome her, his hands extended in greeting.

Hi

Would you say that both of the bold expressions are possible?

He came out to welcome her, his hands extended in greeting.

He came out to welcome her, his hands stretched in greeting.


Also, can we use arms instead of hands?

He came out to welcome her, his arms extended in greeting.

Thanks,

Tom
