Solution

Median through A passes through A and midpoint of BC.
Midpoint of BC = $left parenthesis fraction numerator 5 plus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction comma fraction numerator 1 minus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction right parenthesis equals left parenthesis 3 comma 0 right parenthesis$

Length of Median =
length of median is 5 units.
