Answer:
Option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the routes form a right triangle we have:
7^2+24^2=25^2
The library is on the north and house and school to south.
As per above the longest side of the triangle- 25 km representing the hypotenuse which is against the right angle.This is the house-school line.
So the route house-> school-> library will form right angle
