I think the teacher is wrong... reading the question, I figured it was implied that the cut has to result in 3 equal pieces. Not cutting half and then another half any any other possible variation. Otherwise you could essentially cut 3 pieces in under a min if you take a square board and just cut off an inch from 2 corners yielding 2 small triangular pieces and what's left of the board.
