Answer:
1.The reasons fro the confidence of the British before the revolt of 1857 were: The rebellions and riots that took place before 1857 were localised in nature and were easily suppressed by the British. The powers of the rajas and nawabs were limited by the mid 18th century
2.There was a wide spread impact on the people of the whole country and its ruling families after Bahadur Shah Zafar's support to the rebellion. These were: He wrote letters to all the chiefs and rulers of the country to come forward and organize a confederacy of Indian states to fight with Britishers
3.The British succeeded in securing the submission of the rebel landowners of Awadh by announcing them inheritance rights, i.e. they would enjoy the traditional rights over their land. The British also exempted them from taxes
