Go to ArchiCAD help. Do a search for "roofs". Chose "Creating Roof Intersections"

Also, sometimes it's easier to let ArchiCAD create the roofs automatically and then modify them.

Select one roof and ctrl-click the edge of the roof you want to change. The roof you ctrl-click on will trim or extend as needed to the point where it would intersect the selected roof.

Clear as mud, right?...
