The perimeter of a square is calculated by adding up the lengths of all four sides. Since each side of the square is \( x \) units long, the perimeter \( P \) can be expressed as:
\[
P = x + x + x + x = 4x
\]
Thus, the correct expression that represents the perimeter of the square is:
**A: \( 4x \)**.
\[
P = x + x + x + x = 4x
\]
Thus, the correct expression that represents the perimeter of the square is:
**A: \( 4x \)**.
