Question 40

Consider a schema R(A,B,C,D) and functional dependencies A → B and C → D. Then the decomposition of R into R1(AB) and R2(CD) is

A
dependency preserving and lossless join
B
lossless join but not dependency preserving
C
dependency preserving but not lossless join
D
not dependency preserving and not lossless join
Question 40 Explanation: 
If the given relations are to be lossless then
R1∩R2 ≠ 0
Given R1(A,B), R2
R1∩R2 = 0

Not lossless.
The given relation decomposed into R1(A,B) and R2(C,D) and there are only two functional dependencies A→B and C→D. So the given decomposition is dependency preserving.
Correct Answer: C
