depends on pitch of roof,and height of roof ,
All roofs have a "pitch" even flat roofs have a pitch required to allow water to drain from the roof.
it's easier than that. . . take a four foot level up to the roof and measure the distance from the bottom of the level to the roof and divide by 4. . .that is the pitch
That is the Pitch or slope of the roof. It means that in one foot of horizontal measure you will have 5" of rise .

A single pitch roof is basically a flat roof with a pitch (or angle), usually to allow water to run off. This differs from a double pitch roof /\ that is what you commonly see.
A roof with two distinct slopes. Usually the upper part of the roof has a shallow pitch (slope) and the part near the wall is steep. A roof with two distinct slopes. Usually the upper part of the roof has a shallow pitch (slope) and the part near the wall is steep.
Roof pitch is measured in "rise over run". In other words, how many inches does the roof rise vertically in 12" of horizontal run. If a roof rises 4" in 12" of run, you have a 4/12 roof pitch.

Roof pitch is rise and run. So if you have a 4/12 pitch, for every foot of run the roof rises 4 inches.
The pitch of the roof.
a roof with two pitches. seen on shaker, victorian, prarie style roofs: a lower pitch change will occur within the last 3-5 feet of the eave.

In general, talking about roof pitch, I have never heard or read about this term being used. Roof pitch is measured when you start at the leading edge of a roof and measure towards the center of the house too 12 feet. Pitch is measured from a imaginary parallel level line at the 12 foot mark, how many feet high the roof is at 12 feet is the pitch of a roof. If your roof is at 4 feet high at the 12 foot mark then the phrase would be- a 4/12 pitch.
pitch
A roof angle of 6 degrees = 1.26 / 12 rise or pitch.
Pitch is a bitumen or it can mean the slope of the roof for example 1/8" per foot fall
