What must you construct before you trisect a right angle?
An equilateral triangle on on of the arms of the right angle.
When you trisect an angle you divide it into how many equal pieces?
3. trisect means three
When you trisect an angle how many equal pieces do you cut it in to?
Three ! The answer is in the question !
What happens when you trisect an angle?
You get three angles that are each one third of the original angle. Note that it is impossible to give a general procedure to trisect any angle by using compasses and straight edge alone. There are special cases which are possible, eg a right angle (90°).
Is it possible to trisect a right angle using only straightedge and compass?
Yes and the trisections will form 4 angles of 22.5
When you trisect a right angle you first construct what kind of triangle?
To trisect a right angle form an equilateral triangle with one vertex at the right angle and then bisect that angle of the equilateral triangle. (It is impossible to trisect a general angle using only compass and straight edge - the right angle is a specific exception.)

Right
What triangle do you need to construct in order to trisect a right angle?
An equilateral triangle.
If I have an answer to the trisect any angle geometry question how can I discover if I am right or wrong?
First things first, the actual statement isn't "you can't trisect an angle" but rather "you can't trisect one with only a compass and straightedge." Some angles can be easily trisected--a 90-degree angle trisects into 30-degree segments-but to do it you need a protractor. Anyway, to check your work measure the angle you trisected and divide by three. If your trisections match, you got it right.

How to trisect an angle?
an angle cannot be trisected accurately by using geometrical methods.
