To determine the volume of the figure you are referring to, it is important to know the specific shape of the figure. Since the figure is not drawn, I will provide you with a general approach for calculating volumes of common geometric shapes, given the parameters \( a \) and \( b \).

1. **Rectangular Prism**: If the figure is a rectangular prism, the volume is calculated using the formula:
\[
V = l \times w \times h
\]
Assuming \( a \) and \( b \) are two dimensions, you'd need the height (\( h \)) to calculate the volume.

2. **Triangular Prism**: If it’s a triangular prism, the volume is given by:
\[
V = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]
The base area for a triangle with base \( a \) and height \( b \) would be:
\[
\text{Base Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times a \times b
\]

3. **Cylinder**: For a cylinder, the volume is given by:
\[
V = \pi r^2 h
\]
Where \( r = \frac{a}{2} \) or \( b = \text{height} \).

4. **Cone**: For a cone, the volume is:
\[
V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h
\]
Again, you would need more information about which dimension represents height and base radius.

5. **Sphere**: If it’s a sphere, use:
\[
V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3
\]
Where \( r \) should be defined.

Since I don't have the specific information about the type of figure you're referring to, I can't calculate the exact volume.

Please provide more information about the shape, or if you assume certain dimensions for the height or any specific shape, I will be better able to assist you in calculating the volume!
