Doesn't the adjective have to agree with the verb? Why is "Vous etes beau" also correct?

"Vous" is a personal pronoun which can have 2 meanings:
-
Second person singular formal (if you don't know or respect the person you are talking to): "Vous êtes beau/belle" = "You are beautiful"
-
Second person plural: "Vous êtes beaux/belles" = "You (all) are beautiful"
FYI: the second person informal is "tu" : "Tu es beau/belle" = "You are beautiful"
