a) used to talk about arrangements for the future 用作谈论未来的安排:

2. All staff are to wear uniforms.
c) used to say or ask what someone should do or what should happen (用来告诉某人应当做什么或会发生什么):
例:1. What am I to tell her?
2. He is not to be blamed.
d) used to ask how something can be done (用来问某事应当怎么做) :

你的句子中的are to be covered应当属于b的情况,因为这是老师布置作业的一个规定.而且,主语句也是这种结构:The assignment for today is to write..., 你这个能够题解,也就能理解are to be covered (只是被动态而已).
至于这个in which就更简单,因为前面的summary在后面的定语从句中是作状语(如果把句子拆分的话就成了:The assignment for today is to write a summary. In the summary the major subjects in this chapter are to be covered.),所以是in which (有时用where).如果在定语从句中是作主语或宾语的话就用which或that.
