Original Wikitext content:

In [[13-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], 13/12 is a neutral second of about 138.6¢. It is also a [[superparticular]] interval, as it is found in the harmonic series between the 13th and the 12th overtone (between [[13_8|13/8]] and [[3_2|3/2]] in the octave). It is flat of the [[11-limit]] lesser neutral second of [[12_11|12/11]] by [[144_143|144/143]] (about 12.1¢), and sharp of the 13-limit large semitone of [[14_13|14/13]] by [[169_168|169/168]] (about 10.3¢).

The neutral second in [[17edo]] is about 141.2¢, about 2.6¢ sharp of 13/12. Thus, if 10\17edo (ten degrees of 17edo) is taken to approximate 3/2 and 12\17edo taken to approximate 13/8, you can generate a 13-limit harmonic triad that approximates an 8:12:13 chord with a good 13/12.
