All the help is what teaches students @writeacher. Don't be so rude.
so 90 backwards
same idea as the boy kicking the ball

To determine the reaction force of the carriage on the horse, we can apply Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
In this case, the action force is the force exerted by the horse on the carriage, which is 90 N forward. According to Newton's third law, the reaction force will be equal in magnitude but in the opposite direction.
Therefore, the reaction force of the carriage on the horse is 90 N backward.
