인가요, 건가요
Both of them should be "입니까" and "겁니까" in formal conversation respectively.^^
However in casual conversation "인가요" and "건가요" are often used instead.
They both are casual and polite a bit.^^
(*겁니까 is a contraction of "것 입니까?")
For example,
이것은 꽃입니까? is it a flower? (this kind of sentence is only found in a textbook^^)
이것은 꽃인가요? (more casual)
맞습니까? is it correct?
= 맞는 겁니까?
맞는 건가요? (casual a bit)
맞아요? (more casual)
