Rewrite the above program by using switch statements

Activity #4

Write a C++ program that contains an if statement that may be used to compute
the area of a circle (area = π* radius* radius), or circumference of a circle
(circumference=2 * π* radius) or a triangle (area = 1/2 x base x height). Display “Invalid
User Input” if the user entered other letters. Note that side, radius, base and height
must be greater than zero.
