The wikipedia page KmH linked to will give you half the story. Basically the mirror reflects light upwards to the viewfinder through a focusing screen. When you press the shutter it moves out of the way and the shutter goes off.

Worth mentioning is the missing part of the information is that there's actually TWO mirrors. The main one you can see is semitransparent. Some light gets through this mirror and is reflected by a second mirror behind the main towards the BOTTOM of the camera. The bottom is where the autofocus system is installed.
