Both are measures of central tendency. But, the mean has mathematical properties that are better understood.
Yes, in a normal distribution, the mean is always equal to the median. This is because the normal distribution is symmetric around its mean, meaning that the values are evenly distributed on both sides. As a result, the central tendency measured by both the mean and the median coincides at the same point.

Mean, Median, and Mode
Measures of central tendency are the mean, median, range, mode ect.
Central tendency is measured by using the mean, median and mode of a set of numbers. Variation is measured by using the range, variance and standard deviation of a set of numbers.
In general when you take a sample of values of a random variable you will find that those values lie around some central value that is characteristic of the total population for the random variable. A measure of central tendancy (such as a sample mean, sample mode or sample median) is a statistic which is intended to estimate the central value of the population using the values in the sample in some way.
Median
The central tendency can be summarised by the mode, median or mean. For qualitative data, only the mode is available.The central tendency can be summarised by the mode, median or mean.
