Answer

Brief Explanations:

Sentence 3 states the document was ratified between 1787 - 1790 and sentence 4 says it is unique. The first option combines them in a grammatically - correct and concise way by using a past participle phrase 'Ratified between 1787 and 1790' to modify 'this document'. The second option has a grammar error with the comma - splice. The third option is unclear in its word order. The fourth option has an incorrect use of 'while' and is also unclear.

Answer:

Ratified between 1787 and 1790, this document is unique.
