How are the following different:

  * そうです (thats right)

  * そうですか (i see; is that so)

  * そうですね (thats right)

also what's the difference between いいです and いいですね?

reference or sentence in context much appreciated especially example/s of
where one uses "thats right" in english and then its translated to japanese
which of そうですね or そうです are used any help would be much appreciated.

What's the difference between そうですね, そうですか, そうです
そうです is a way of saying 'yes, that is certain.' For example, a discussion
using the word might go like this:

> 4+3=7 ですか？ (Is 4+3=7?)
>

>> はい、そうです。(Yes, that is certain.)

On the other hand, そうですか is, as the definition you provided, can be both I
see; or is that so?

If you used it as 'I see':

> 椅子に引っかかって腕を折りました。(I tripped on a chair and broke my arm.)
>

>> そうですか。。。 (I see...)

If you used it as 'Is that so?':

> 4+3=8です。 (4+3 is 8.)
>

>> そうですか？ (Is that so?)

そうですね is a more intimate version of そうです、 and usually used when you are
talking to a person of higher rank. It can also be used to start a sentence
like 'um,'

Used like 'yes, I agree':

> 社長： ロッククライミングは危ないと思います。(Boss: I think Rockclimbing is dangerous)
>

>> 社員： そうですね。(Worker: Yes, I agree.)

Used like 'um':

> あなたはどう思いますか？ (What do you think?)
>

>> そうですね、良いと思います。(Um, I think it is good.)

いいです and いいですね is the same thing as before, the one with the ね is more
intimate version, and usually used when you are talking to a person of higher
rank.

I hope this helps.
