Hi,
"One reason why we use three matzot is to commemorate the three se'ah measures of flour [that Sarah prepared for the visiting angels in Genesis 18] on Passover.
"We break one of the matzot in order to remember the splitting of the Sea, as well as the Jordan River [when the Jews entered Israel in Joshua 3], which occurred on Passover."
(Taamei haMinhagim 520, citing Daat Zekeinim miBaalei haTosafot)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
