hipped/hip roof
“Architectural Glossary
…
Hipped Roof - A hipped (or hip) roof slopes down to the eaves on all four sides. Hipped roofs are often found on French Inspired and American Foursquare style homes. Although a hipped roof is not gabled, it may have dormers or connecting wings with gables.”

“Wikipedia
…
A hip roof, or hipped roof, is a type of roof where all sides slope downwards to the walls, usually with a fairly gentle slope. Thus it is a house with no gables or other vertical sides to the roof. A square hip roof is shaped like a pyramid. Hip roofs on rectangular houses will have two triangular sides and two trapezoidal ones. A hip roof on a rectangular plan has four faces. They are almost always at the same pitch or slope, which makes them symmetrical about the centerlines. Hip roofs have a consistent level fascia, meaning that a gutter can be fitted all around. Hip roofs often have dormer slanted sides.”
