$N = M ^{2}+ M ^{4}+\ldots \ldots+ M ^{98}=\left[-\alpha^{2}+\alpha^{4}-\alpha^{6}+\ldots .\right] I$
$=-\alpha^{2} \frac{\left(1-\left(-\alpha^{2}\right)^{49}\right)}{1+\alpha^{2}} . I$
$I - M ^{2}=\left(1+\alpha^{2}\right) I$
$\left( I - M ^{2}\right) N =-\alpha^{2}\left(\alpha^{98}+1\right)=-2$

$f_n(x)=\sum_{j=1}^n \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{1+(x+j)(x+j-1)}\right) \text { for all } x \in(0, \infty)$
(Here, the inverse trigonometric function $\tan ^{-1} x$ assumes values in $\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)$ )
Then, which of the following statement(s) is (are) TRUE?
$(A)$ $\sum_{ j =1}^5 \tan ^2\left( f _{ j }(0)\right)=55$
$(B)$ $\sum_{ j =1}^{10}\left(1+ f _{ j }^{\prime}(0)\right) \sec ^2\left( f _{ j }(0)\right)=10$
$(C)$ For any fixed positive integer $n$, $\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty} \tan \left(f_n(x)\right)=\frac{1}{n}$
$(D)$ For any fixed positive integer $n, \lim _{x \rightarrow \infty} \sec ^2\left(f_n(x)\right)=1$
