track of monkey:  x_m =b  y_m =h−((gt^2 )/2)  track of bullet:  x_b =u cos θ t  y_b =u sin θ t−((gt^2 )/2)  with tan θ=(h/b)  if there exists t at which both tracks  lie on the same position, then it   means that the bullet hits the monkey.  x_m =x_b  ⇒ u cos θ t=b   ...(i)  y_m =y_b  ⇒ u sin θ t−((gt^2 )/2)=h−((gt^2 )/2)   ...(ii)  from (i): t=(b/(u cos θ))  from (ii): t=(h/(u sin θ))=((b tan θ)/(u sin θ))=(b/(u cos θ))  that means at t=(b/(u cos θ)), the bullet  hits the monkey.
