R8C9 - removing <7> from <237> leaving <23>

Intersection of row 1 with block 3. The value <3> only appears in one or more of squares R1C7, R1C8 and R1C9 of row 1. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 3. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 3 cannot contain this value.

R3C8 - removing <3> from <349> leaving <49>

Intersection of column 2 with block 7. The values <27> only appears in one or more of squares R7C2, R8C2 and R9C2 of column 2. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 7. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 7 cannot contain these values.

R8C1 - removing <7> from <479> leaving <49>

Squares R7C2, R7C7, R8C2 and R8C7 form a Type-1 Unique Rectangle on <79>.
