R7C1 - removing <4> from <1347> leaving <137>

Intersection of row 3 with block 1. The value <6> only appears in one or more of squares R3C1, R3C2 and R3C3 of row 3. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 1. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 1 cannot contain this value.

R2C1 - removing <6> from <34569> leaving <3459>

Intersection of row 6 with block 6. The value <1> only appears in one or more of squares R6C7, R6C8 and R6C9 of row 6. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 6. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 6 cannot contain this value.
