In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''13/10''', the '''tridecimal semisixth''' is an [[interseptimal]] interval measuring about 454.2¢. It falls in an ambiguous zone between a wide major third such as [[9/7]] and a flat perfect fourth such as [[21/16]]. The descriptor "interseptimal" comes from [[Margo Schulter]], and indicates its position between those two septimal (7-based) extremes. 13/10 appears between the 10th and 13th overtones of the [[harmonic series]] and appears in such chords as 8:10:13, a quasi-augmented triad. 13/10 also appears in the relatively-simple 10:13:15 triad, which consists of an interseptimal ultramajor third (13/10) and an interseptimal inframinor third ([[15/13]]) which stack to make a [[3/2]] perfect fifth. It is well-approximated in [[16edo]], [[21edo]], [[24edo]], [[29edo]], [[37edo]], and of course, infinitely many other [[EDO]] systems.

== Interval chain ==
Because 13/10 is an interseptimal interval, stacking it four times will result in a good approximation of a septimal interval. In this case, (13/10)<sup>4</sup> approximates 20/7 (compound [[10/7]]) remarkably well, with less than 1{{cent}} error.
Additionally, while it may seem as though (13/10)<sup>2</sup> doesn't approximate 17/10 very well at first glance, it allows for an elegant interpretation of the tetrad formed by stacking 13/10 three times on top of itself: [[~]]10:13:17:22.
