If you have two identical phones, you can swap the battery from one to the other and see if the problem follows the battery or stays with the phone... that will tell you for sure whether the battery is the problem.

Otherwise, you would have to take the phone apart and test the internal components to see what exactly was causing the problem. If you think there's a good chance it's the battery, you can get a new battery for the phone on Amazon for under ten bucks.
