It has been proven that of all line segments drawn from a given point not on it, the perpendicular line segment is the shortest.
<h3>How to prove a Line Segment?</h3>We know that in a triangle if one angle is 90 degrees, then the other angles have to be acute.
Let us take a line l and from point P as shown in the attached file, that is, not on line l, draw two line segments PN and PM. Let PN be perpendicular to line l and PM is drawn at some other angle.
In ΔPNM, ∠N = 90°
∠P + ∠N + ∠M = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
∠P + ∠M = 90°
Clearly, ∠M is an acute angle.
Thus; ∠M < ∠N
PN < PM (The side opposite to the smaller angle is smaller)
Similarly, by drawing different line segments from P to l, it can be proved that PN is smaller in comparison to all of them. Therefore, it can be observed that of all line segments drawn from a given point not on it, the perpendicular line segment is the shortest.

<h3>Answer:</h3>
- y = -(x -3)² +3 . . . . (agrees with your answer)
- see the attachment for a graph
Factoring the leading -1 from the first two terms, we have ...
... y = -(x² -6x) -6
Adding 9 inside parentheses to complete the square, then adding the opposite amount outside parentheses, we have ...
... y = -(x² -6x +9) -6 +9
... y = -(x -3)² +3
