MATLAB: Solving for theta at different time steps

equationsolve

I have the following equation:
 47.9618*theta + 15.9809*sin(2*theta) = 20.780136*t
Given, at time t = 0, theta = 0 radians. I want to find theta value at t = 1 second, 2 seconds, etc.
Could this be automated on matlab?

E.g.,
>> t = 0;
>> f = @(theta) 47.9618*theta + 15.9809*sin(2*theta) - 20.780136*t;
>> fzero(f,0)
ans =
     0
>> t = 1;
>> f = @(theta) 47.9618*theta + 15.9809*sin(2*theta) - 20.780136*t;
>> fzero(f,0)
ans =
    0.2649
>> t = 2;
>> f = @(theta) 47.9618*theta + 15.9809*sin(2*theta) - 20.780136*t;
>> fzero(f,0)
ans =
    0.5651
