Answer:

Cone Z, cylinder Y

Explanation:

Pointy objects such as pyramids and cones have 1/3 the volume of a prism (or cylinder) with the same base area. So, for a cone and cylinder of the same base area to have the same volume, the cone must be 3 times as high.

The figures described as having that relationship are ...

cone Z, cylinder Y

_____

Additional comment

The perimeter of a prism is not sufficient to define its base area, unless the shape of the base is well-enough defined. However, the perimeter of the base is useful for determining the lateral surface area. Unfortunately, that is not of any interest in this problem.
