All listed words share the common spelling chunk "-ance", but their pronunciations differ. "Performance" rhymes with "conformance" (not listed) due to matching stressed vowels and following consonants /fɔrməns/. The words above have different stressed syllables or consonant clusters, so they do not rhyme with "performance" in standard American English.
