Latty = [38; 39; 37; 40; 39; 36; 39; 39; 38; 40; 35; 37; 38; 40; 40; 37; 36; 36; 39; 36; 40; 35; 39; 35; 39; 39; 35; 38; 39; 38; 37; 36; 35; 37; 39; 40; 36; 39; 39; 38; 38; 36; 36; 38; 36; 36; 38; 35; 40; 36; 36; 36; 36; 37; 38; 39; 36; 35; 38; 40; 36; 32];

Your while loop doesn't appear to be necessary; it's performing the exact same calculation multiple times. Maybe you meant this:
i = 1;
sz = size(Latty);
while i <= sz(1)
Rn(i,1)=(a^2)/(sqrt((a^2)*(cosd(Latty(i)).^2)+(b^2)*(sind(Latty(i)).^2)));
i = i + 1;
end
disp(Rn)
1.0e+06 * 6.3862 6.3866 6.3859 6.3870 6.3866 6.3855 6.3866 6.3866 6.3862 6.3870 6.3852 6.3859 6.3862 6.3870 6.3870 6.3859 6.3855 6.3855 6.3866 6.3855 6.3870 6.3852 6.3866 6.3852 6.3866 6.3866 6.3852 6.3862 6.3866 6.3862 6.3859 6.3855 6.3852 6.3859 6.3866 6.3870 6.3855 6.3866 6.3866 6.3862 6.3862 6.3855 6.3855 6.3862 6.3855 6.3855 6.3862 6.3852 6.3870 6.3855 6.3855 6.3855 6.3855 6.3859 6.3862 6.3866 6.3855 6.3852 6.3862 6.3870 6.3855 6.3841
However, you can do the same thing without a loop. (Use ./ for element-wise division.)
Rn = a^2./sqrt(a^2*cosd(Latty).^2+b^2*sind(Latty).^2);
disp(Rn)
1.0e+06 * 6.3862 6.3866 6.3859 6.3870 6.3866 6.3855 6.3866 6.3866 6.3862 6.3870 6.3852 6.3859 6.3862 6.3870 6.3870 6.3859 6.3855 6.3855 6.3866 6.3855 6.3870 6.3852 6.3866 6.3852 6.3866 6.3866 6.3852 6.3862 6.3866 6.3862 6.3859 6.3855 6.3852 6.3859 6.3866 6.3870 6.3855 6.3866 6.3866 6.3862 6.3862 6.3855 6.3855 6.3862 6.3855 6.3855 6.3862 6.3852 6.3870 6.3855 6.3855 6.3855 6.3855 6.3859 6.3862 6.3866 6.3855 6.3852 6.3862 6.3870 6.3855 6.3841
