They have the same measure.
When the can be added or subtracted evenly
Perimeter will scale by the same factor. Area of the new figure, however is the original figures area multiplied by the scale factor squared. .
yes. if the two figures are the same size and shape, then they are similar
no because if they are conmgruent then they are similar
No, in general that is not true. For two similar figures it is true. But you can easily design two different figures that have the same perimeters and different areas, or the same area and different perimeters. For example, two rectangles with a different length-to-width ratio.
if you add up all the sides but in a smart way
Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.
Their perimeters are in the same ratio.
They have the same measure.

The ratio of 25-ft to 20-ft is 5/4 or 1.25 .But ... knowing the perimeters alone is not enough informationto guarantee that the two figures are similar.-- They could be two rectangles, one measuring 25-ft by 1-ft, the other measuring 4-ft by 5-ft.Those are not similar rectangles.-- They could even be one rectangle and one triangle ... definitely not similar.

The perimeters of two similar polygons have the same ratio as the measure of any pair of corresponding sides. So the ratio of the measure of two corresponding sides of two similar kites with perimeter 21 and 28 respectively, is 21/28 equivalent to 3/4.
If all angles of two polygons are the same the figures are similar (irrespective of rotation).
