Yes the bullet will hit the monkey as both fall with downward accleration of g m/s^2.
Hint:
The bullet will hit the monkey at a ht. S above the ground given by:
S = V*Sin(theta)*t - (1/2)*g*t^2
{V-initial velocity at an angle theta with horizontal}
During this time t, the monkey falls by a distance = (1/2)*g*t^2
