I am a new user of *Mathematica*. I want to solve the following equation a*Tan[a] = Sqrt[(52.7531 - a^2)] for `a`, where `a` is a real value. I used the `Solve` function, but I am not getting the right answer. I tried, Solve[a*Tan[a] == Sqrt[(52.7531 - a^2)], a, Reals] I am doing something wrong. Could anyone tell me what it is? Thanks in advance.
