Framing for Triangle/Trapazoid windows

I'm wondering about the framing of Triangle/Trapazoid windows in gable end walls and gable dormers. Building is in WA state (Pierce County). Cathedral ceilings with strutural ridge beam and rafters. The triangles are above a square window. Are headers necessary above the square and above the triangle following the slope of roof?
