When a roof line is set to slope defining this symbol appears adjacent to it.
Pick which walls set slope roof revit.
Create a sloped roof with an overhang.
In the drawing area highlight an entry wall.
Specify slope defining lines.
Modifying revit roof slopes to change the roof from a gable roof to hip roof go into the sketch options select all boundary lines and turn on the defines slope parameter note as a default your roof will have a slope of 30 degrees on all boundaries and form a hip roof unless you change the slope designation in the sketch mode per boundary line.

Sketch or pick a closed loop for the roof.
Much like roofs you can use the defines slope property to control the slopes of your soffit under a gable or similar angled roof construction that overhangs the supporting wall.
In the example the lines at either end are given the defines slope property and the slope was set to match the falls of the roof above which is 30degrees in this instance.
To change the slope definition of a line select the line and on the properties palette click defines roof slope.
On the options bar for overhang enter 600 and select defines slope.
