I have a 23 degree pitch roof. One side of the roof is 3m long and the other side is 4.5m long. These join together at an angle. Is there any guttering I can use on the angled part? The straight runs of 3m and 4.5m can of course use normal guttering, but the angled part is also pitched and I can’t find a gutter bend which is both angled and pitched.

Sloped angle guttering

Why the acute (crappy) angle and not (the taller roof) brought along so it's square and not sloped? Was your designer pizzed?
You can buy adjustable gutter unions.
Those drawings are baffling. They look like an impossible flat/pitched roof Escher drawing.
That's a poxy design where no thought has been given to building it or what it looks like.
The best option is trying to fit a stop end outlet on the high gutter, but even so you've got the situation of how the sloping gutter connects to the lower gutter and all the water running down that excessively sloping gutter and flying out of the corner at the bottom.

Is this correct?
Or do you mean there is a silly angle change in the footprint like this:

Why would you want to do that? Is this already built like this?
So my second image is correct. Hmm what a pickle, should've thought about the gutter beforehand, precisely because of this.
Personally I would run the long gutter down to a downspout at the LHS of or around the corner of the garage door with a stop end on both ends.
Run the shorter gutter to a running outlet and downspout again at or around the corner of the sloping wall.
Then on the sloping part fit a gutter with end cap at the top underneath the long one and a running outlet half way down feeding into the same downspout as the short one to take part of the flow away and prevent overflow at the bottom, and the open end feeding into the top of the shorter front gutter.
