That's a big planet, but how big is it?

If a tidal locked terrestrial sized moon with 0 eccentricity, 0 incline, and was orbiting .01 AU away from a gas giant with 12 Jupiter masses (which would have approximately the same radius as Jupiter), how much of the sky would said gas giant take up if you stood at the center of the inward facing side? If this orbit is too close to be stable and/or makes the surface extremely volcanic (like Io) for a long time, I would appreciate any suggested orbit sizes that will fit these conditions, and then an answer based upon those conditions.
