In a traditional 3-4 your NT plays 0 and your DEs play 5 (Whether they Shade or Gap is largely dependend upon 2 Gap or 1 Gap scheme respectively)
In a traditional 4-3 your NT Plays 1 or 2i, your UT plays 3, your LDE plays 7 and your RDE plays 9.

In some 30 alignments, you could have a DE playing 3T on one side and 5T on the other, depending on the backside LB alignment.
But how you have it listed here is how I learned it too.
EDIT: We were taught "evens and odds". Even numbers were head-on and odd numbers were shaded/gap...
