p=4a  (dp/dt)=4((da  )/dt)    p=perimeter     a=side of square  (dp/dt)=4×0.1=0.4cm/sec

$${p}=\mathrm{4}{a} \\ $$$$\frac{{dp}}{{dt}}=\mathrm{4}\frac{{da}\:\:}{{dt}}\:\:\:\:{p}={perimeter}\:\:\:\:\:{a}={side}\:{of}\:{square} \\ $$$$\frac{{dp}}{{dt}}=\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{4}{cm}/{sec} \\ $$
