Guildenstern and Rosencrantz both die by the hand of England due to the mix up of letters by Hamlet. Ironically Hamlet was suppose to be behead; however, because Guildenstern and Rosencrantz bring the letters written by Claudius to England they ended up giving the letters rewritten by hamlet that lead to their beheadenment.
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Hamlet's childhood friends. Claudius sends them to spy on Hamlet.
They are. If they weren't, Hamlet wouldn't have sent them to their death. They had the opportunity to betray him when they were out of his sight. It seems the king didn't completely take them into his confidence, though, so perhaps their loyalty wasn't total.
They are friends of Hamlet's from school.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern do more than one job for the king. The first is to try to draw Hamlet out in conversation, so they can know what is on his mind. Later they accompany Hamlet to England.
True. Hamlet changed the king's orders to the English from "Kill Hamlet" to "Kill Rosencrantz and Guildenstern." He didn't have to do that; he could have changed the orders to "Give Hamlet some flowers".
