Answer #1

R(A,B,C,D)
F={
A->B
A->C
C->A
B->C
ABC->D
}

Here A->B And A->C is replaced with A->BC

New Set= A->BC
C->A
B->C
ABC->D
  
Now C is extraneous attribute in A->BC. Therefore it is replace with A->B

New Set= A->B
C->A
B->C
ABC->D
  
Here B is extraneous attribute in ABC->D. Therefore it is replace with AC->D

New Set= A->B
B->C
C->A
AC->D

  

Answer:- G={A->B , B->C, C->A, AC->D } is a Canonical cover of F.
