About indirect speech:

• The sentence that is given in direct speech must be changed into indirect speech.
• When a sentence is changed into indirect speech, the comma and quotation marks must be removed.
• The given sentences are interrogative. So the question mark must be removed in reported speech we must used 'asked' because it is a question.
• As it is a yes/ no question, we must use 'whether' after 'asked'.
• The person within the quotation marks must be changed in reported form accordingly. So 'you' becomes 'he', the listener.
• The entire sentence is converted into past tense. That is the verbs take the past tense form. So 'are' becomes 'was'.
• As we are changing question form to indirect statement form of speech, the noun will precede the verb. Thus 'are you' changes into 'he was'.
• Therefore the answer is: I asked him whether he was going for the party.
