In the Sprint 171 Update of Azure DevOps, Microsoft announced to support Linux/ARM64 hosted agents. To be able to use that as Microsoft hosted agent, I need to know the correct label for such an image. I can not find it anywhere.

We can add the task Bash and enter the script printenv to list all env variable, then check the variable AGENT_OSARCHITECTURE, as the test result, all ubuntu hosted agent architectures are x64 instead of ARM64, you can raise this issue to Developer Community, the Azure DevOps product team will check it and give you a detailed explanation..
As a workaround, we can install Linux ARM64 self-hosted agent, you can refer to this doc for more details.

That release announcement is pretty brief. I didn't necessarily take is as hosted agents would be supported, just that you could self-host the agent if you wanted.
If you want to find the details of what is supported and available on the latest images, that is all captured on the GitHub page for virtual Environments. Specifically, you can find the YAML label.
As-of 2020-09, I don't see anything referencing ARM64 available.
ubuntu-20.04, ubuntu-latest or ubuntu-18.04, ubuntu-16.04, macos-latest or macos-10.15, windows-latest or windows-2019, windows-2016
