Package biblatex Error

I have a latex document and wanted to add references using bibtex. I created a file and saved it with the extension .bib. In the latex file I use \usepackage{biblatex} and then \bibliographystyle{style} \bibliography{PHcite} When I compile I get this error:

./Physics IA.tex:153: Package biblatex Error: '\bibliographystyle' invalid. See the biblatex package documentation for explanation. Type H for immediate help. ...

l.153 \bibliographystyle{style}

?

./Physics IA.tex:154: LaTeX Error: Can be used only in preamble.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation. Type H for immediate help. ...

l.154 \bibliography {PHcite}

You just have to look at one of the biblatex examples in order to see what the problem is:

Don't use

\documentclass[<options>]{<class>}
% ...
\begin{document}
% ...
\bibliographystyle{<style>}
\bibliography{<bib>}
% ...
\end{document}

Instead use

\documentclass[<options>]{<class>}
% ...
\usepackage[
  style = <style>,
  <other options>
]{biblatex}
% ...
\addbibresource[<options>]{<bib>.bib}
% ...
\begin{document}
% ...
\printbibliography[<options>]
% ...
\end{document}
