The circumference is the distance around a circle whereas the perimeter is the distance around a polygon
Yes it is because the perimeter describe the outside of the figure, when also the circumference describe the outside of the circle.
The perimeter of a circle is its circumference
They are alike because both are just alike..

I'm not entirely sure what you are meaning to ask unless you simply aren't sure of the definitions of each. The circumference of a circle is the length of the entire edge of a circle. The perimeter of a polygon is the length of the entire edge of a polygon combined.
When the shape is a circle, then the perimeter is called"circumference".The circumference IS the perimeter of a circle.
Both are the measurement of the outside edge of a figure, circumference relates specifically to a circle, and perimeter refers to polygons.
Both of their exterior angles add up to 360 degrees.
if your perimeter totals the same as 4 times pi then the maximum area that can be encompassed is equal to the perimeter. This is done by forming a circle. if you change the shape of the circle then the area will become smaller than the perimeter(circumference) if you make the circumference of the circle smaller then you will definitely decrease the area faster than you would the perimeter if you make the perimeter bigger then you will definitely increase the area faster than you would the perimeter.
The perimeter of a circle is the same as its circumference
