Why are these distances different if both of the objects are centered...

As you can see in the image below, I have two center aligned figures, one is a box, and another is a set of circles. For some reason, when I check the distance between the corners of the box and the edge of the circle on each side, the lengths are different... why?

Says your circles are not the same distance from the center... Also your sketches are not properly constrained so thing will move around, you need to add relations/dimensions to make sure everything on the sketch is "black" (i.e. fully constrained) to avoid this sort of problem.
Pretty convenient.
