Answer: second option.

Explanation:

The formula that is used to calculate the perimeter of a square is:


P=4s

Where s is the lenght of any side of the square.

To know the lenght of a side of this square, you need to use the formula for calculate the distance between two points:


d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)

Let's choose the points of the vertices A and B and substitute them into the formula:


d=s=√((3-2)^2+(4-(-2))^2)=√(37)units

Substituting into
P=4s, you get:


P=4(√(37)units)\\P=4√(37)units
