to break down a couple of questions,

3) the anterior deltoid contracts with both flexion and horizontal flexion of the shoulder joint, what exercises you choose are up to you

5) the trapezius is split into three sections, the upper, middle and lower. the fibres in these sections face different ways and therefore control different articulations, height of the trapezius would be the upper fibres which are controlled by the elevation of the shoulder girdle, sorry to DB and hackskii on this but deads and bent over rows would work your traps due to retraction of the shoulder girdle stimulating the middle fibres, this will add to the '45 degree slant' as it were. Depression contracts lower fibres, retraction- middle, elevation- upper.
