I've attached a sketch of the construction. Keep in mind that the construction is only possible if
$|h| \leq |m|$

Construct a right triagle with the given altitude as its altitude, and the median as its hypotenuse. Now mark off a segmanet of the third side of the given side length centred on the point where the hypotenuse (median) meets the base.
