Correct Answer: $80^{\circ}$


Solution :
$\angle$ ACD = $120^{\circ}$
⇒ $\angle$ B = $\frac{1}{2}\angle$ A
⇒ $\angle$ACD = $\angle$A + $\angle$B
⇒ $120^{\circ}$ = $\angle$A + $\frac{1}{2}\angle$ A = $\frac{3}{2}\angle$ A
⇒ $\angle$A = $\frac{120×2}{3}$ = $80^{\circ}$
Hence, the correct answer is $80^{\circ}$.
