The mirror is part of the viewing/focusing mechanism.
In an SLR with a pentaprism or similar means of getting the light from the lens to the eyepiece, the light coming through the lens has to be redirected vertically up, and then redirected horizontally out, to the back of the camera. The mirror is used as the first means of diversion because it is directly behind the lens and also may provide some or all of the blockage between the lens and the film or sensor. (some SLRs may have no focal plane shutter just a mirror, that flips up for the amount of time that the shutter speed is set).
In a rangefinder camera if it is a mirror assembly then the mirror picks up a second image through a second port that is then redirected by the mirror to the main eyepiece viewer, and focusing is based on adjusting the secondary image that is superimposed on the main eyepiece viewer. SLRs can have a combination of such a "split image" as well as soft-to-sharp focus system but again it is direct through the lens.

How do you take a photograph using a mirror?
Yes but a front surface mirror ( the mirror is on the front of the glass not behind it ) is best. If you are going to take a photo of yourself in a mirror you have to place the camera at an angel where the camera sees you in the mirror and you see the camera not yourself. So place the camera at a 45 degree angle to the mirror and place yourself opposite of it. look at the camera, set the timer and let it go or use a long shutter release if the camera is designed for it. Of course those of us who carry rangefinders, SLRs or TLRs have been taking photos with mirrors for years.

If you wish to photograph the image of your little sister who is standing 2 meters from a plane mirror holding the camera beside her head you should set the distance for?

To take a clear picture of an image in a mirror should the camera be focused on the image or the mirror?
An image in a mirror is a "virtual" image which takes on certain characteristics. One of these characteristics is that the apparent distance is equal to the distance from the observer to the mirror plus the distance from the mirror to the subject. If the observer and subject are the same, then the apparent distance is twice that of the subject to the mirror. If the observer is 3 feet from the mirror and the subject is 20 feet away, the apparent distance is 23 feet. If you focus on the subject and have distance markings on your lens, you can prove this to yourself.
