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.


Are there two different launch angles that will allow you to hit the red target?

Usually there are. For example - and assuming there is no air resistance, and that source and target are at the same height - if an angle of 40 degrees (45 minus 5) will hit the target, then an angle of 50 degrees (45 plus 5) will also hit it.
