Morphology
The noun–noun combination 'cheat' + 'sheet' is compositional: a 'sheet' associated with 'cheat' (i.e., a piece of paper used to cheat or as a quick reference). This follows a common English compounding pattern and has clear cross-linguistic parallels, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will very likely infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
The noun cheat sheet comes from students secretly hiding a small sheet of paper with answers to cheat on exams; that clear image of a tiny paper with secret notes made people call any small helpful paper a 'cheat sheet'.
