How do you fix a leaky shower door?
Look closely at your style of door, there maybe adjustments that can be made. If the door is the type that slide (side to side) then check to see that the door, on the inside track, is being slid towards the shower head. (Sliding the opposite door allows the water to get between the doors and leak.) Check to see that the "weep holes" of the track are not blocked. If this is a door that does not slide but opens into the room, look at the lower edge of the door, there is (more than likely) a rubber style weatherstrip that maybe torn (it can be replaced.)
How a door is detected to be a right handed reverse door?
That term is used more in commercial doors than residential. It helps the door supplier to get the key side of the lock on the right side. If you remember that most doors swing into the room, place your backside (your butt) at the hinges, which ever arm matches the swing of the door determines the swing. If the door swings out of the room, (reverse of normal) then this swing determining method is the same but then a Right becomes a LH reverse. Confusing, I know. See the link.
