You are at the top of a mountain, which slopes up at a 35 ̊ angle above the horizontal. If you throw a pebble horizontally from the top of the slope with an initial speed of 25 m/s, how far down the slope will it land (d, in meters)?

A projectile is thrown from the top of a cliff with an initial speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 600 up from the horizontal. If the projectile lands 100 m from the base of the cliff how tall is the cliff?
A boy is standing from the top of a cliff 8 m from the ground and he has a bow which is aimed 40 degrees from the horizontal. He can release the bow with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. An animal is below the cliff and is moving towards the boy at a velocity of 5 m/s. For the bow to hit the animal, at what distance D should the animal be when the bow is fired?
Here is my problem: From the top of a cliff overlooking a lake, a person throws two stones, as shown in the drawing. The cliff is 15.4 m high. The two stones described have identical initial speeds of v0 = 18.0 m/s and are thrown at an angle θ = 26.7 °, one below the horizontal and one above the horizontal. What is the distance between the points where the stones strike the water? Neglect air resistance. I think I have the correct steps.. but can't seem to get the right answer. I would like someone to walk me through how to solve this.
