Here's how it's used in different contexts:
Geometry:
* Bisect a line segment: Divide the line segment into two parts of equal length. This is done by finding the midpoint.
* Bisect an angle: Divide the angle into two equal angles. This is done by drawing a line that cuts the angle in half.
Other contexts:
* Bisect a time period: Split a period of time in half. For example, you could bisect the month of June by dividing it into two equal parts.
* Bisect a population: Divide a group of people into two roughly equal groups.
In general, "bisect" means to divide something in half, whether that's a line, an angle, a time period, or anything else.
