In a penalty corner do you have to hit the backboard to score a goal?

No, this is a common misunderstanding of the rules, especially when they are explained by another player who is also unfamiliar.
If the First shot at goal during a penalty corner is a hit (including sweeps) then it must enter the goal at the height of the backboard or lower unless it has been deflected by either an attacking or defending player including the goalkeeper; If the First Shot is a drag flick, scoop, the ball can enter the goal at any height... for second and subsequent shots, and for flicks or scoops, the ball may enter the goal at any height.
Note that hitting the backboard does not mean the ball entered at that height; during its flight, the ball drops, so unless it is a faster shot or hits lower down, it may have actually entered higher than permissible, and this should be watched for (especially when umpiring or defending one).

In soccer where do you place the ball for a penaltiy kick?
You place the ball on the penalty mark which is normally marked by a dot, and the penalty mark must be twelve yards from the midpoint of the goal line between the posts, and must be equidistant to both posts. The ball must be kicked in a forwards direction, although shooting is not compulsory. If you somehow managed to score an own goal from a penalty, it would not count, a corner would be given to the opposition instead. This is because it is not possible to score an own goal from a set piece.
