Hidden symmetries of second-order differential equations which are inv
ariant under a one-parameter Lie point group and are of the energy-con
serving form are analysed as an inverse problem for some particular ca
ses. These hidden symmetries occur as additional one-parameter Lie poi
nt group symmetries in the reduced first-order differential equations.
