1. **State the problem:** We have a triangle ABC with angles at vertices A, B, and C given as $2x + 20$, $x + 20$, and $\frac{1}{2}x$ degrees respectively. We need to find the measure of angle ACB (angle at C).
2. **Recall the triangle angle sum rule:** The sum of the interior angles of any triangle is always 180 degrees.
3. **Set up the equation:**
$$
(2x + 20) + (x + 20) + \frac{1}{2}x = 180
$$
4. **Combine like terms:**
$$
2x + 20 + x + 20 + \frac{1}{2}x = 180
$$
$$
(2x + x + \frac{1}{2}x) + (20 + 20) = 180
$$
$$
\left(3 + \frac{1}{2}\right)x + 40 = 180
$$
$$
\frac{7}{2}x + 40 = 180
$$
5. **Isolate the term with $x$:**
$$
\frac{7}{2}x = 180 - 40
$$
$$
\frac{7}{2}x = 140
$$
6. **Solve for $x$ by dividing both sides:**
$$
x = \frac{140}{\cancel{1}} \times \frac{2}{\cancel{7}} = 40
$$
7. **Find angle ACB:**
$$
\text{Angle ACB} = \frac{1}{2}x = \frac{1}{2} \times 40 = 20^6
$$
**Final answer:** Angle ACB is 20 degrees, which corresponds to option A.
