The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

St. Thomas Aquinas took on the challenge of resolving this conflict in his writings. How did he accomplish this through his words?

The context is this. It is true that Medieval thinkers struggled to balance the relationship between faith and reason. They were in constant conflict and under the severe scrutiny of the Catholic church's institution of the Inquisition. That is when Averroes's "theory of the double truth" stated that the two types of knowledge were in direct opposition to each other.

However, it came St. Thomas Aquinas with a brilliant concept that represented a solution to Averroes's ideas.

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) had a revolutionary mind for his time. He has a distinct approach and stated that religion and science can intermingle because science and religion came from the mind of God. So science and religion were compatible concepts, although his ideas created some kind of controversy in some social and religious strata in medieval times.

St. Thomas Aquinas saw no obstacles to consider the collaboration of science and religion if that meant the growth of the mind and the advancement of people.

Only with emancipation, and with his support of the eventual 13th Amendment, would Lincoln finally win over the most committed abolitionists.
