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.

The perimeter changes in direct proportion to the scale factor; the area is proportional to the square of the factor.
If you are asking how the perimeter of an object changes if the whole object is proportionally changed: The perimeter changes by the same factor as the change in proportion of the whole object. For example: given a square that is 2 units by 2 units, changed by a factor of four, the new size would be 8 units by 8 units. The original perimeter was 2+2+2+2=8. The new perimeter is 8+8+8+8=32. So, multiplying the original perimeter, 8, by the factor of proportional change, 4, we get 8x4=32. For any object, multiply the original perimeter by the factor of proportional change to arrive at the new perimeter.
It is a strict linear relationship. Double the size, double the perimeter. The area, however, increases by the square of the scale factor.
don't take this answer is a factor to the reasonable of the time table of course you stupid
The standard size in height of a perimeter fence is 6 to 8 feet tall. The standard size length of a perimeter fence varies depending on the size of the property in which it is installed.
It will be three times the size. Each length will be multiplied by 3.. Perimeter = h+h+w+w if we multiply each by three then we get 3h+3H+3w+3w = 3P
