    Let ABC be a triangle. Consider four points p1,p2p_{1},p_{2}, p3,p4p_{3},p_{4} on the side AB , five points p5,p6,p7,p8,p9p_{5},p_{6},p_{7},p_{8},p_{9} on the side BC and four points p10,p11,p12,p13p_{10},p_{11},p_{12},p_{13} on the side AC . None of these points is a vertex of the triangle ABC . Then the total number of pentagons, that can be formed by taking all the vertices from the points p1,p2,….p13p_{1},p_{2},\ldots.p_{13}, is ____\_\_\_\_ .
