The circumference of a circle is 2 * pi * r.

If you multiple r by x you get 2 * pi * (r * x) which is the same as x * (2 * pi * r).

So the circumference is multiplied by x.

The area of a circle is pi * r2.

Multiply r by x and you get pi * (rx)2 which is the same is (pi * r2) * x2.

So the area gets multiplied by x2.

What is the perimeter of a perfect circle?

The measure around a circle is called a circumference, rather than a perimeter. The term "perimeter" is used for polygons. The circumference of a circle is equal to the diameter, multiplied by pi - or to the radius, multiplied by 2 x pi. The number pi - which can be defined precisely as the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle - is approximately 3.1416.
