Scale factor and perimeter are related because if the scale factor is 2, then the perimeter will be doubled. So whatever the scale factor is, that is how many times the perimeter will be enlarged.

The perimeter will scale by the same factor.
New perimeter = old perimeter*scale factor New area = Old area*scale factor2
The linear scale factor is 100.
It is a strict linear relationship. Double the size, double the perimeter. The area, however, increases by the square of the scale factor.

There need not be any. There is no scale factor between a pentagon with a perimeter of 50 cm and a triangle with a perimeter of 75 cm. The shapes are totally different!The scale factor is 2 : 3.

The perimeter, being a linear measure, also changes by a factor of 3.
12r = p
If the scale factor is r, then the new area will be the area of the original multiplied by r^2
If you change the scale factor of a geometric figure by a factor "x", that is, keeping the new figure similar to the old one, the perimeter (which is also a linear measurement) will change by the SAME factor "x".Note that any area will change by a factor of x squared.
A rectangle 10.5 x 3 will have a perimeter of 27 in.
