To find the height of a parallelogram when you know the area and the base, you can use the formula for the area of a parallelogram:
\[
\text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]
Given that the area is 375 cm² and the base is 25 cm, you can rearrange the formula to solve for height:
\[
\text{height} = \frac{\text{Area}}{\text{base}}
\]
Substituting in the values:
\[
\text{height} = \frac{375 \, \text{cm}^2}{25 \, \text{cm}} = 15 \, \text{cm}
\]
Therefore, the height of the parallelogram is **15 cm**.
