I am trying to find the index of a value in an array which I used an equation to determine and saved as a variable. This is what I would like to happen, but I get an error:
azimuth_angle = 180 + atand(b/a); % The equation yields an azimuth_angle of 195, which is a value in the array azimuth_z.
azimuth_index = find(azimuth_z == azimuth_angle); % azimuth_index should give me 337, which is the index I want, but it only works when I replace azimuth_angle with the value it is (195).
Where azimuth_z is a 360x1 single and b and a are just values.
Is there a way to use find() with a variable? Or is there another function I need to use?

Sounds like azimuth_angle is not exactly 195, but it's something very close to 195.
So instead of using find to find an exact match, you can find values very close to 195, e.g.:
azimuth_index = find(abs(azimuth_z - azimuth_angle) <= 10*eps(azimuth_angle));
Or you can use min to find the closest match regardless of how close it is to 195:
[~,azimuth_index] = min(abs(azimuth_z - azimuth_angle));
