For this problem we are informed that a certain function f(x) has a minimum value, and we need to choose the form that helps us determine what is this minimum value more efficiently.

The minimum value of a quadratic function, if the function has one, is always represented by its vertex. Therefore, the best form to determine the minimum value is the "Vertex Form".

The correct answer is "Vertex Form".
