In terms of calendar dates, BC means "Before Christ". The current calendar (for most parts of the world) is based (with some errors in the original calculations) on the birth of Christ. More and more, you will see dates indicated with BCE or B.C.E. instead of BC. BCE means "Before Common Era" and means exactly the same thing in terms of years, without the religions connotation. AC and CE would do for "After Christ", or "Common Era".

Why are there six trigonometrics functions only?

All the trigonometric functions are derived from the right angled triangle. If we consider the three sides (AB, BC, CA) of a triangle and the included angle. There is a possibility of getting six functions based on the ratios like AB/AC, BC/AC, AB/BC, BC/AB, AC/BC, AC/AB . So we will have six trigonometric functions
