Follow STRICTLY this steps. I will not writing twice.
1. Open a new file, draw approximately your walls (it is only for learning so, the accuracy is not so important).

2. Draw a room around walls which represent the roof projection.

3. Select that room
Image

4. Tools -> Generate roof...
Image

5. You should see something like this
Image

6. Select the triangle faces (4 in this case). Keep Ctrl pressed to do this.
Image

7. Set their slope to 90 degrees
Image

8. Check the Invisible checkbox
Image

9. Select two faces in front of the house
Image

10. Set their slope to 33 degrees
Image

11. Do the same with faces from the back side of the house
Image

12. Click somewhere outside the roof and you should see this. Click OK.
Image

13. On plan, Right click on selected roof and go to Modify furniture... -> Materials -> Modify...
Image

14. Select all upper faces
Image

15. Set their texture
Image

16. Select border and lower
Image

17. Set preferably a different texture
Image

18. This could be the result

If you are not completely satisfied with the result you could select the generated roof and go back to Tools -> Generate roof.
