Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The first option is the correct choice.
"Have had been cheated" should be replaced with "had been cheated" as per the passive structure.
There is an error in the use of the verb tense in the sentence. The other options ''were cheated'' and ''are cheated'' do not follow the subject-verb agreement.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "They were angry because they realised that they had been cheated on."
