  1. A2 and 4
  2. B3 and 4
  3. C1 and 2
  4. D2 and 3Correct

Explanation

The correct answer is D because only pairs 2 and 3 are correctly matched. Pair 1 is incorrect because the period 1767 to 1769 marks the First Anglo Mysore War, not the First Anglo Maratha War which took place later from 1775 to 1782. Pair 2 is correct because the Third Anglo Mysore War occurred between 1790 and 1792, ending with the Treaty of Seringapatam. Pair 3 is correct because the First Anglo Burmese War took place from 1824 to 1826 and concluded with the Treaty of Yandabo. Pair 4 is incorrect because the period 1845 to 1846 marks the First Anglo Sikh War. The Second Anglo Sikh War actually took place from 1848 to 1849.
