To find the volume of a prism, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]
Where the base area depends on the shape of the base.
In your case, you provided three numbers: 4, 10, and 13. If we assume that these numbers represent the dimensions of the prism (for example, the base dimensions and the height), we can consider two cases:
1. **Rectangular Base:**
If we consider 4 and 10 as the dimensions of the rectangular base and 13 as the height, the volume would be calculated as:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Length} \times \text{Base Width} \times \text{Height} = 4 \times 10 \times 13
\]
\[
\text{Volume} = 520 \text{ cubic units}
\]
2. **Triangular Base:**
If 4 and 10 are the base dimensions of a triangular prism (assuming base height is 4 and base width is 10, and height is 13), the base area of a triangle is given by:
\[
\text{Base Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Base Length} \times \text{Base Height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 4
\]
\[
\text{Base Area} = 20 \text{ square units}
\]
Then, the volume would be:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height} = 20 \times 13
\]
\[
\text{Volume} = 260 \text{ cubic units}
\]
Please clarify which type of prism you are referring to and how the dimensions relate to the base and height so that I can give you the most accurate answer.
