    Rays will bounce back and stay parallel.

    Explanation:

    The plane mirror reflects light according to the laws of reflection.

    From that you know when a light ray reflects its incident angle is equal to the reflected angle. From that we know when a set of parallel rays get reflected by the mirror, the reflected rays will make the same angle with the mirror.

    So rays will stay parallel to each other.
