As both $T$ and $W$ determine terminal points in the fourth quadrant, we know that both angles fall between $270^\circ$ and $360^\circ$ . We also know that $0$ for $270$ , and that $\cos x$ is strictly increasing along this interval.

This means that the angle with the larger cosine value must be closer to having a measure of 360 degrees than the angle with the smaller cosine value, so $W>T$ .
