Word Origin From Latin 'secare' 'to cut' and 'tri-' three. Trisected means divided into three equal parts. The same root 'secare' gives us bisect (cut in two), dissect (cut apart), intersect (cut between), section, and even insect (insects have segmented bodies that look cut into). The PIE root *sek- means 'to cut'.
