In this paper, we study the differential equations of the following form w2+R(z)2(w(k))=Q(z), where R(z), Q(z) are nonzero rational functions. We proved the following three conclusions: (1) If either P(z) or Q(z) is a nonconstant polynomial or k is an even integer, then the differential equation w2+P2(z)2(w(k))=Q(z) has no transcendental meromorphic solution; if P(z), Q(z) are constants and k is an odd integer, then the differential equation has only transcendental meromorphic solutions of the form f(z)=acos(bz+c). (2) If either P(z) or Q(z) is a nonconstant polynomial or k>1, then the differential equation w2+(z−z0)P2(z)2(w(k))=Q(z) has no transcendental meromorphic solution, furthermore the differential equation w2+A(z−z0)2(w′)=B, where A, B are nonzero constants, has only transcendental meromorphic solutions of the form , where a, b are constants such that Ab2=1, a2=B. (3) If the differential equation , where P is a nonconstant polynomial and Q is a nonzero rational function, has a transcendental meromorphic solution, then k is an odd integer and Q is a polynomial. Furthermore, if k=1, then Q(z)≡C (constant) and the solution is of the form f(z)=Bcosq(z), where B is a constant such that B2=C and q′(z)=±P(z).
