He wished his friend good morning and asked how he/she was. The sentence is in the indirect speech.
Indirect speech:
- The words uttered by a person can be reported in two different ways.
- Direct and Indirect.
- When one quotes the exact words of the speaker, we call it direct speech.
- On converting a interrogative sentence into indirect speech the reporting verb said is converted to asked.
- The reporting verb is in the past.
- The direct speech is in the simple present tense.
- Hence the indirect speech will be in the past indefinite tense
- The correct answer is: He wished his friend good morning and asked how he/she was.
