Need help to use inactive and active relationship simultaneously in dax

Hello,

I am trying to use active and inactive relationship based on the Primary Key in a single measure to use it on a single visulaization.

Scenario:
If Key is found in Table C  via active realtionship use active relationship in measure to find out sales.
If key is not found via active realtionship then compare Table A key with Table C using inactive relationship

Tried below measure but this doesnt seem to be working

userrelationship =
if(SELECTEDVALUE('Table B'[Key])=SELECTEDVALUE('Table c'[Key]),[salesnew],
CALCULATE([salesnew],USERELATIONSHIP('Table C'[Key],'Table A'[Key])))

Thanks
