Can i tapper with degrees angle? I want to rotate the sides of my shape in  specific degrees, all of them simultaneously. Think about a pyramid shape

Yes, but only indirectly.

 

You can either 1) Do the math on paper for the final width and height that gives you your desired angle.

or 2) Set a separate plane object to the angle you want, then match your taper to that just by eye.
