1. **State the problem:** We need to find the height of a trapezium given its area and the lengths of the two parallel sides.
2. **Formula:** The area $A$ of a trapezium is given by
$$A = \frac{(a + b)}{2} \times h$$
where $a$ and $b$ are the lengths of the parallel sides, and $h$ is the height.
3. **Given values:**
- $a = 4$ cm
- $b = 6$ cm
- $A = 15$ cm$^2$
4. **Substitute the known values into the formula:**
$$15 = \frac{(4 + 6)}{2} \times h$$
5. **Simplify the expression:**
$$15 = \frac{10}{2} \times h$$
$$15 = 5h$$
6. **Solve for $h$:**
$$h = \frac{15}{5} = 3$$
7. **Answer:** The height of the trapezium is $3$ cm.
