As a general piece of advice, always consult the documentation provided by
the developers of a software package before typing search terms in Google.
 This is particularly harmful with PETSc, since there are about 10 years
worth of tutorials and references scattered around the web, many of them for
out of date versions of the toolkit.

You are trying to use SLEPc functionality, so you should start with their
documentation: http://www.grycap.upv.es/slepc/documentation/manual.htm
and its user manual: http://www.grycap.upv.es/slepc/documentation/slepc.pdf

In the case of PETSc, there is extensive documentation available from here:
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-as/documentation/index.html
You should start with the user manual:
