Assertion: The distance between the points $P(\frac{\pi}{4})$ and $P(\frac{\pi}{3})$ on the hyperbola $9x^2 - 16y^2 = 9$ is $\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{66 - 32\sqrt{2} - 18\sqrt{3}}$.
Reason: $x = a \cosh t, y = b \sinh t$ are the parametric equations of the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$.
