Explanation:

• In indirect speech, the message of the speaker is conveyed in one's own words to another person.
• Here, the given statement of direct speech is a Yes/No type question.
• A Yes/No type of question is reported in an indirect speech by using the following format:
•                          'ask' + if/ whether + clause
• Since the given statement is in the present perfect tense, it is changed into the past perfect tense in indirect speech.
• The given sentence begins with the auxiliary verb, therefore the joining clause should be "if or whether".
