    The correct is (4) contract curve. It is the only curve among these that is formed in an Edgeworth Box Diagram. Income consumption curve is formed in case of a single consumer. Ridge lines are for one good with two factors of production. Same for expansion paths. The biggest feature of Edgeworth Box Diagram is that it allows considering two consumers / two firms / two factors of production simultaneously.
