Given cosA= cosB,
consider a triangle abc right angled at C, such that AB is hypotenuse, BC is base and AC is perpendicular
COS A= AC/AB--------------------1
COS B= BC/AB--------------------2
Upon equating 1 with 2,
AC/AB = BC/AB
....... AB gets cancelled
AC=BC( opposite angles of equal sides are equal)
therefore ANGLE <A= ANGLE <B
hope it helps you :)
