I also have a rotation.
I want the X and Y to point at the object.
This might explain it better, it's hard for me to explain.

And if your result is really this rectangle I dont get how you came to the solution.
So you have a starting point with X,Y and rot? Then you want to see the next objects this point is "watching at"?
I would increment the view distance and check everytime if something is on the way.
Once you hit it you do know c and all angles in my triangle. Then you can get whatever you want.

He has Object A and Object B
He wants to set rotation of Object A so it is looking at Object B

rotation = Atan2(objectA.y - objectB.y, objectA.x - objectB.b)
After you get rotation, you can push your old position towards the new one.

ObjectA.x + cos(rotation) * distance ObjectA.y + sin(rotation) * distance
