Occluded front
The type of front associated with purple triangles and semicircles on a weather map is a occluded front.
A map with isobars is a front map.
The symbol for a Cold front on a weather map is represented with a blue line with blue triangles facing the direction that the front is traveling. A warm front is represented with a red line with red half-circles facing the direction of travel.

A stationary front is represented by two fronts; a cold front and a warm front. In case you don't know or remember, a warm front is represented by red half-circles. A cold front is represented by blue triangles. They will be very close to each other.
On a map, a warm front is represented with half-circles on a side of a red line. Related link will take you an image of a warm front symbol.
A high on a weather map indicates a high pressure area. This indicates a new weather front is moving into that area.
The Key, or Legend, or a map gives a list of the symbols used on the map and what they represent. There is a fairly standard set of symbols used for different types of map so that anyone looking at the map can understand what it is being shown. For example, on a weather map a cold front is shown as a black line with semi-circular bumps (in blue if coloured), a warm front is shown as a black line with triangles (in red if coloured) and an occluded front is shown as a black line with alternate semi-circular bumps and triangles.
A front
These are a weather form named depressions. There should be 2 on the map (sometimes 3) ones that have blue spikes on showing "The cold front" and ones with red "lumps" on showing "The Warm Front". The cold front (spikes) is usually in front of the warm front and they sweep across counties and spiral around an area of low pressure in a clockwise direction. They are always moved along by the jet stream and because of this bring different weather to different parts of the country depending on what front hits. (the third kind is an occluded front which simply means that the warm front has cuaght up with the cold front casuig the depression to collapse)
