The image shows two problems related to perimeter. The text is in isiZulu.

The first problem asks to find the perimeter of the given shape. The shape is surrounded by small rulers, each indicating a length of 1 cm.

Count the number of 1 cm segments around the perimeter of the first shape.
There are 20 segments around the shape.
Calculate the total perimeter.
Since each segment is 1 cm long, the total perimeter is the number of segments multiplied by 1 cm.
$\text{Perimeter} = 20 \times 1 \text{ cm} = 20 \text{ cm}$
The perimeter of the first shape is $\boxed{\text{20 cm}}$ .

The second problem asks to find the perimeter of the second shape. It states that each ruler has a length of 10 cm and a width of 1 cm. The rulers are placed around the perimeter of the shape.
Count the number of rulers around the perimeter of the second shape.
There are 16 rulers placed around the shape.
Determine which dimension of the ruler is used for measuring the perimeter.
The rulers are placed such that their length measures the perimeter. The problem states "rula inobude abu-10cm nobubanzi be-1cm", meaning "a ruler has a length of 10cm and a width of 1cm". When measuring the perimeter, the length of the ruler is used.
Calculate the total perimeter.
Multiply the number of rulers by the length of each ruler.
$\text{Perimeter} = 16 \times 10 \text{ cm} = 160 \text{ cm}$
The perimeter of the second shape is $\boxed{\text{160 cm}}$ .
