Explanation:

- Cheating (Option 1): Cheating involves deceiving someone to gain a dishonest advantage. In this scenario, there's no indication of deceit or fraud upon A, just the taking of the ring.

- Criminal Breach of Trust (Option 2): This involves someone entrusted with property using it dishonestly. Here, B wasn't entrusted with the ring by A.

- Criminal Misappropriation of Property (Option 3): This happens when someone converts another's property for their own use. However, B doesn’t aim to use the ring for his own purpose but rather to compel payment.

- Theft (Option 4): Theft is the intent to permanently take someone’s property without consent. B took A's ring without consent and aimed to keep it until A paid money.

- Correct Answer: Theft (Option 4)
