normal forms. Explain BCNF with a suitable example.
Consider Relational Schema R(A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J) and set of
2. CO3 Functional Dependencies: F={AB->C,A->DE,B->F,F->GH,D->IJ} 4
Determine keys and decompose R into 2NF.
Given the following set of FDs on schema R (V,W,X,Y,Z) {Z→V,
W→Y, XY→Z, V→WX}State whether the following decomposition

(i) R1=(V,W,X) , R2=(V,Y,Z)
(ii) (ii) R1=(V,W,X), R2=(X,Y,Z)
A set of FDs for the relation R{A, B, C, D, E, F} is AB →C, C →

Find a minimum cover forth is set of FDs.
a) Consider the following two steps of functional dependencies
F = {A → C, AC → D, E → AD, E → H} and G = {A → CD,
5. CO3 E → AH}. Check whether or not they are equivalent. 4
b) Define MVD & JD in detail.
