in reality that is a question--Like BOAC says

for a detailed answer you could also try Abbott and Vandoenhoff 'theory of wing sections' they discuss sweep in detail in the section of 'the effects of compresibity at high subsonic speed' of course with the assumptions of infinite side slip and an infinitely long span
