What, specifically, causes you to believe that your iPad may have been "hacked"?

Providing that your iPad has been kept up-to-date with system software updates, you should not be overly concerned for your iPad being directly compromised by malware. Due to the system architecture of iOS/iPadOS, unless jailbroken, your iPad is not susceptible to traditional malware infection per-se.

Unexpected issues or behaviour are not necessarily an indicator of compromise.
