Morphology
misrepresented = misrepresent (transparent) = mis + represent + ed
The adjective is formed by standard suffixation from the verb 'misrepresent' (mis- 'wrongly' + represent) with no substantial sense shift.
Etymology
Misrepresented is made from the prefix mis- meaning 'wrong' and represent meaning 'to show' or 'present'. So to be misrepresented is to be 'shown wrongly', which is why the word means being described in a false or unfair way.
