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°).

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 must you construct before you trisect a right angle?
An equilateral triangle on on of the arms of the right angle.
Is it possible to trisect any angle using a compass and straightedge?
True
How do you draw an angle of 20 degrees with a compass and a ruler?
to construct an angle of 20 degrees all you have to do is to trisect an angle of 60degrees

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.)
