How does the angle of the launch pad affect the distance of the model rocket?

Yes, it does. I never use more then about a 10 degree offset

What angle should you launch a bottle rocket at?
Well, for what? If it's height, then 90o. If you want maximum horizontal distance, then fire it at 45o.
What should be the initial velocity of a rocket if it to hit a target 1000 km away?
initial velocity would be ZERO before launch. To calculate the velocity you would need to hit that target at that distance you would need to know the mass of the rocket and the angle of launch or trajectory simplifying it
What does launch angle mean?
Launch angle means the angle at which a rocket or object is place as it is being sent into the air. This determines its initial flight and is particularly important for rockets which are entering orbit.
Why does launch angle affect time of flight?
Not sure
What does launch means?

What is the best angle to fire a rocket to get the maimum distance?
45 degrees
Does humidity affect a model rocket?
A strong low wind will very much affect it's angle of flight. We try to wait for breaks in the wind to launch. Wind is bad for parachutes too, a rocket that went high can float a mile or two on it's parachute.
How come scientists tells us that the optimal release angle is a certain number?
The optimal release angle is 45 degrees from the horizontal because an object launched at that angle goes the furthest distance in comparison to other launch angles. Of course, the distance to your target will determine what the actual optimal launch angle should be. Launch angles above and below 45 degrees will cause the object that is launched to go a smaller distance.
How does angle affect the distance of a projectile?
yes it does. you see if you have it set up at a a 90 degree angle it will go further than it would of a 10 degree angle A projectile leaving the ground at an angle of 45 degrees will attain the maximum range. Fire it straight up and it will fall back to its launch location (wind effects etc. ignored). Fire it horizontally and it will hit the ground very much the same time as if it was dropped from its launch platform at the same time. That would not be very far.
Does the sizes of fins affect the rocket fly?
The size of fins affects the stability and angle, small fins are best.
How does the angle thrown affect the distance of a ball thrown?
yes it does the optimal ang
At what angle must an object be launched to travel 1 meter?
Well by the angle being at a certain angle it will launch sometime more then one meter and if the angle was a right angle then it will launch 350CM.
