Let us look at the triplet to the right of row 1. We see that the cells must sum to 9.
Possible combinations that sum to 9 are:
126, 135, 234. But, because there is already a
3 in row 1 outside the triplet, no cells in the triplet can contain a 3. Therefore the only possible
combination is
126. For the highlighted cell in column 9, there is already a 1 and 6 in the column,
therefore the cell has to be a
2.
