Actually a plane mirror inverts an image not side to side, but front to back. If you hold up your right hand in front of a mirror, the images of the parts of your hand closest to you will be the farthest away. It is this inversion that turns a left hand into a right hand, while leaving the thumbs on both hands pointing in the same direction.
