Two lines of a plane are said to be parallel if they do not intersect and the perpendicular distance betweem them is always same.
Rays aren't really lines, since (Euclidean) lines extend infinitely in all directions, so they can't be parallel lines. But that's to fret a bit too much over the wording. Yes, rays, just like lines and line segments, can be parallel to other rays, lines, or line segments.

Things in the same plane are coplanar.
A set of points, lines, line segments, rays or any other geometrical shapes that lie on the same plane are said to be Coplanar.

If rays, parallel ones. If segments there are many more options because you can have a segment that is not long enough to reach the point of intersection.

First, lines and rays cannot be congruent because they do not have both end points defined. Not having an end point define means we cannot talk about their length so they can't be congruent. Line segments, however, can be congruent. Congruent line segments NEED NOT be parallel.Furthermore, if two line segments are parallel, that does not mean they are congruent since parallel line segments may not have the same length.Congruent line segments would be ones that are the same length.
The definition of parallel is two rays, lines, or line segments that have the same slope and will never touch. The word parallel is a good example (at least in lowercase) - examine the l's.parallelAlso depends on the font you choose.ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

No, it contains line segments, not rays.
