Which of the following is the opposite side to angle $\theta$θ?

A right-angled triangle has vertices labeled in a counterclockwise direction: vertex $A$A is positioned at the top, vertex $B$B at the bottom left, and vertex $C$C at the bottom right. At vertex $A$A, $angle(BAC)$angle(BAC) is labeled as $\alpha$α. At vertex $B$B, $angle(ABC)$angle(ABC) is labeled as $\theta$θ. At vertex $C$C, $angle(ACB)$angle(ACB) is the right angle denoted by a small square. The hypotenuse is the side $overline(AB)$overline(AB). Side $overline(BC)$overline(BC) is opposite to angle $\alpha$α. Side $overline(BC)$overline(BC) is adjacent to angle $\theta$θ. Side $overline(AC)$overline(AC) is opposite to angle theta. Side $overline(AC)$overline(AC) is adjacent to angle $\alpha$α. Side $overline(AC)$overline(AC) is not adjacent to angle $\theta$θ.
