Actually, I want to show Category Filter in Sidebar which Magento provide by default.

I also show category to Is Anchor "Yes" but still filter is not Displaying.

Set your "Study Guides" category as no-anchor and set the anchor to subcategories of "Study Guides" which you want to display in the filter.

You can use the following code at the top :

$category = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/layer')->getCurrentCategory();
if(!$category->getChildren()){
 //$parentcat_id = $category->getParentCategory()->getId();
 //$category = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/category')->load($parentcat_id);
 $category = $category->getParentCategory();
}
$categories = $category->getCollection()
        ->addAttributeToSelect(array('name', 'thumbnail'))
        ->addAttributeToFilter('is_active', 1)
        ->addIdFilter($category->getChildren());
