As they have said, yes he can tell when you are using his connection by checking his router. He can also tell if the connection lights are flashing on his router when he is not using it.
He will most likely not mind unless he has a download limit. If he exceeds that then he may take issue with you using his wireless.

If he was savvy enough than yes, he could notice his internet speed go a little slower, if he opened up his router settings page, it would show you as connected also.
If he was really savvy he could gain access to your system and log all your keystrokes (username, password, credit card numbers etc), he could possibly be letting you use it for that purpose :)

No, he probably won't know until he gets his bill as has exceeded his download limit.
Just make sure he doesnt use the connection to stuff you!
