A 12 12 roof means 12 inches of rise for every 12 inches of distance across the width. The ends of the rafters would be cut on a 45 degree angle. Both ends. How long depends on the size of the roof.

u lay your shingels level to the hip and cut the excess diagonal off then cover the hip after each side is roofed with a "cap"

Yes, it can have any pitch, the pitch is the ratio of the number of units (usually inches) run (horizontal) to the number of units rise (vertical). The units of run is always 12 therefor if you measure over 12 inches then measure up at 90° that number represents the pitch. If you measure over 12 inches and measure up 8 you have an 8/12 pitch roof.
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 4/12 gives you 4" per foot.
Yes
the 2 common angels needed to cut a 5/12 pitch are 22.6 degrees and the reciprical 67.3
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.

Four sheets of 4' by 8' plywood will be required to cover a shed roof measuring 10' by 12'. Three of the sheets can be used as is, but one of the sheets will need to be cut to fit.
No, cut a whole shingle in thirds at the cut outs.
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.
It is usually referencing the pitch of a roof so a 3/12 roof would have a rise of 3" in a 12" span..... jimmyrjii
A 12/12 is 45 degrees. If you set a 45 degree piece of wood on the roof it should be level.

Roof pitch is rise and run. So if you have a 4/12 pitch, for every foot of run the roof rises 4 inches.
