Didn't quite get what you meant by master tables, transaction tables, child tables etc.
All of these will give you information about base user tables:

INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
sys.tables
sys.objects where [type] = 'U'

probably you meant system tables

SELECT *
FROM sys.objects
WHERE type='u'
AND is_ms_shipped=1

Using undocumented features can have undesirable effects as its implementation may change without notice. Its not safe to use this on production environment.
