Place the vertices in order A → B → D → C (so opposite sides are AB & DC, AD & BC).

AB = distance between (-5,-4) and (2,-4) = 7.
BD = distance between (2,-4) and (4,2) = sqrt(2^2 + 6^2) = sqrt(40) = 2√10 ≈ 6.3249.
(Also CA between (-3,2) and (-5,-4) = √40.)

Perimeter = 2(AB + BD) = 2(7 + √40) ≈ 26.65 ≈ 26.6 units.

Answer: 26.6 units.
