Aggettivi is masculine because it derives from the Latin "aggectivus" (from "adjicere," meaning "to add to"), which used the masculine nominative singular ending "-us" that became "-o" in Italian. Like most Italian nouns ending in "-o," it retained this masculine gender through regular sound change from Latin.
