public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }
}

select the Form and click on F12

after that metadata will show up and on the top you can see from which dll it's taken:

#region Assembly System.Windows.Forms, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089
// C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework\v4.6.1\System.Windows.Forms.dll
#endregion

using System.ComponentModel;
using System.ComponentModel.Design;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace System.Windows.Forms
{
   ...
}

You can take a look at the code from the .NET Framework Reference Source site provided by Microsoft. Here is a direct link to the System.Windows.Forms.Form class:
