Beau
Addition by Crisdean
The answer above is correct, but incomplete. French is seldom simple.
Two forms : Beau or Bel.
The use between those two depends on the noun, and on its place.
You must use Bel :
If the noun begins with a vowel or with a mute 'h' and if it is after the adjective in the sentence.
ex - un bel homme, un bel arbre. (a beautiful man, a beautiful tree)
- but : "un homme beau" (the noun is before the adjective) -
There is no exception with the words beginning with a vowel.
But .....
French loves to be complex. The "h" is sometimes "aspired". (like the word Hearing in English)
And sometimes, it is hard to get with masculine words.
To recognize those, you must check the elision using the articles (un or le)
ex :
in oral you say "un homme" (pronounced : un nomme) and l'homme, not Le homme
the "h" is muted and the elision is made between the adjective and the noun.
So : un bel homme, un bel hiver, un bel hommage etc....
but words such as "hibou" (owl), "haricot" (bean), "hareng"(herring) have the aspirated "h" that blocks the elision.
In those cases you will use Beau
you say un hibou (a owl) (pronounced "un hibou" and not "un nibou")
So - un beau hibou (a beautiful owl)
or un beau hareng.
There is a great wikipedia on the aspirated h in French with a huge list words

Belle is the feminine form of the French masculine word beau. The respective pronunciations of the singular adjectives/nouns/pronouns in French will be "behl" for "beautiful" in the feminine and "bo" for "handsome" in the masculine.
beau (plural 'beaux') is the masculine adjective meaning beautiful in French. The feminine form is 'belle'
If you were talking to a male, it would be, "Tu est beau'. If you were talking to a female it would be, "Tu est belle". The masculine form of beautiful is 'beau' and the feminine is 'belle'
The masculine form is "cerveau" (s-air-voe) while the feminine form is "cervelle" (s-air-velle [velle is like Belle]).
There are two ways of expressing beauty. "Beau" is the masculine form & "belle" is the femmine form. Ex.) Il est beau. This means; He is beautiful. Ex.) Elle est beau. This means; She is beautiful. Depending on weather the object is masculine or feminine depends on which form of it you should use. Ex.) Ou est le cahier de maths? This means; Where is the math notebook. Because notebook is masculine, we use the "Il" form of it to answer the question. So the answer would be; Il est dans le sac a dos.
that is the masculine form
Gerald is the masculine form. The feminine form is Geraldine.

The masculine form of master is "master." Both masculine and feminine forms of this term are the same.
The masculine form for "tendre" in French is "tendre" as well. The word does not change in form based on gender.
