Probability of two people meeting during a certain time.

I recently read a math problem and, having not yet taken anything beyond calculus 1, was curious about how to solve it correctly.

Problem: Calculate the probability of two people meeting at the same location between 1 and 2 p.m. Assume both people show and person 1 will wait 15 minutes for person 2.

Doesn't this probability increase as the time frame shrinks? For example, Isn't there a much smaller chance the pair will meet if person 1 arrives at 1:00 vs arrives at 1:45 (the probability of meeting becomes 1).

Is this somewhat easily answered using basic statistics? Just curious if my thought process is accurate or way wrong.

That's an example for the case where person1 will wait 10 minutes = $\frac 1 6$ hour for person2. To find the needed probability you should just integrate the marginal density over the shaded area.

I am sure you can easily see any answers on your questions on this geometrical example.
