Default confirm, check, support, endorse
Dear ALL

Following 3 sentenses are OK and their meanings are the same?
1. The report supports the hypothesis..2. The report endorse the hypothesis..3. The report confirm that the hypothesis was right.

What would be the difference between the followings?
3. The report confirm that the hypothesis WAS right.
4. The report confirm that the hypothesis IS right.
5. The report confirmed that the hypothesis was right.

Following sentenses are OK and their meanings are the same?
6. We have to confirm whether the hypothesis is right.7. We have to check whether the hypothesis is right.
